Whip up a delightful Chicken Tikka Masala with tender, yogurt-marinated chicken in a rich, spiced tomato sauce. This dish is sure to impress your taste buds!
I don't make Indian cuisine very often becuase I assumed my kids wouldn't like it.
But I was craving it so I made my one of my facvorites, Chicken Tikka Masala.
To my amazement everyone loved it! They even asked when I could make it again. 😂
