Method
Chicken Tikka
- 1
Marinate the Chicken
In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, lemon juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, cumin powder, coriander powder, garam masala, turmeric powder, red chili powder, salt, and vegetable oil. Mix well to create a marinade. Add the boneless chicken thighs and coat them thoroughly in the marinade. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.

Prepare for Grilling
Preheat the grill or oven to high heat. If using skewers, ensure they are soaked in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.

Cook the Chicken Tikka
Thread the marinated chicken thighs onto skewers, leaving space between pieces for even cooking. Grill the skewers for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has a nice char.
