If you are craving for Restaurant style,delicious Chicken Tikka Masala ,then this recipe is your answer! Very thick,creamy,delicious gravy will leave licking your fingers 😊 


Hey All! it's been a while since I posted,but I am here with a new exciting recipe which I wanted to share for a long time now. Its very creamy,delicious ,restaurant style Chicken Tikka Masala!

Chicken is a regular at home,as we all are born carnivores and can't live without seafood,chicken or atleast egg in our diet.I try to keep meals balanced with chicken/fish and a portion of vegetable or salad.But today I was not in a mood to make multiple dishes with some sides,so settled with some hot steamed rice and thick creamy Chicken /Murg Tikka Masala gravy.

The creamy thick gravy was so good and went so well with rice and would have been a hit with lachcha paratha/malabar paratha even naan or roti.
This gravy has turned out better than restaurant one for me,do give this a try and share your feedback by tagging me on my Instagram account .
I have also shared many restaurant style recipes on my blog such as Butter Chicken and many more.Here is the link to my recipes list which are restaurant style.
