Easy Recipes Spicy and Soul-Satisfying Sheet Pan Chicken Tikka Masala
I don’t know why it took me so long to try it but I’m such a fan of Indian food now thanks to my friend who introduced some popular dishes to me. One of my favorites is chicken tikka masala. It features juicy pieces of chicken that have been marinated in a spiced curry sauce before being roasted to maximize the amount of flavor they offer. So it obviously goes without saying that as soon as I got home, I set to work on trying to find the best baked sheet pan chicken tikka masala recipe I could find, since baking is still the easiest for me.
This soul-satisfying sheet pan chicken tikka masala recipe makes use of a homemade curry mix that’s composed of a tantalizing mix of yogurt, ginger, garlic, paprika, garam masala, salt, and pepper.
Marinate your juicy chunks of boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the curry mix, add in some cauliflower florets that have been drizzled with extra virgin olive oil, and you have all the makings of one truly delicious and nutritious meal indeed.
