Chicken Tikka Bites

Chicken Tikka Bites
Tikka is a popular dish in India and traditionally consists of small pieces of boneless chicken baked using skewers on a brazier or 'angeethi' after marinating in spices and yoghurt. We recommend that you marinate the chicken for at least two hours, and preferably overnight, to allow the complex flavours of the spices to soak into the meat.
