Tips & Secrets

  • Using chicken thighs instead of breast ensures the meat remains juicy and tender after grilling.
  • Charring the chicken slightly provides the essential smoky depth found in authentic versions.
  • Allowing the masala to cook until the oil separates is the secret to a flavor.
  • A touch of honey or sugar can help balance the acidity of the tomato base if it's too sharp.
