Quick & Easy Chicken Tikka + Video

You can prep this recipe in the morning and the marinade will work its magic throughout the day and then around 45 mins before dinner time I just pop the chicken thighs into a hot oven and serve the juicy, aromatic chicken with our Indian bread, some cucumber raita and a quick chopped salad. This recipe is also great on the BBQ and you can also skewer the chicken and add in vegetables like onions, mushrooms and courgettes.
