Chicken tikka is a

Indian spices and dahi (yogurt)—essentially a boneless version of tandoori chicken.[2] The word tikka (tike in Turkish, and tikə in Azerbaijani) is a Persian word, meaning "bits" or "pieces". It is also a chicken dish served in Punjabi cuisine. The Kashmiri version of the dish, however, is grilled over red-hot coals, and does not always contain boneless pieces. The pieces are brushed with ghee (clarified butter) at intervals to increase its flavour, while being continuously fanned. It is typically eaten with green coriander and tamarind chutney served with onion rings and lemon, or used in preparing an authentic chicken tikka masala.[3]

A chicken tikka sizzler is a dish where chicken tikka is served on a heated plate with onions. The dish is also popular in

spicy compared to the variants in the Indian subcontinent and uses beef and lamb in addition to chicken.[4][5]
