Chicken Tikka Masala, a beloved Indian dish, combines tender pieces of chicken with a creamy, spiced tomato sauce. While it’s a staple in Indian restaurants across the globe, this dish has a fascinating history with deep roots in both Indian and British cuisine, reflecting the cultural exchange through colonial influence and migration. Its complex flavors are simplified in this slow cooker recipe, making it accessible for busy weeknight cooking. This dish provides an excellent opportunity to explore the harmonious balance of Indian spices without the need for an extensive ingredient list.
Chicken Tikka Masala pairs wonderfully with aromatic basmati rice or warm naan bread, which are perfect for soaking up the delicious sauce. A side of steamed vegetables or a simple cucumber salad dressed with yogurt and mint can add a refreshing contrast to the richness of the dish. If you enjoy a bit of heat, pickled mango or a spicy chutney might be right up your alley.
