Spicy Chicken Tikka Masala, Grilled Version image

This is an awesome dish to make for company if they like chicken with heat. I would suggest doubling the sauce and serving with nan and basmati rice. I have also used low fat & FF yogurt and it works beautifully.

I'm not a fan of the grilled chicken in this dish. I prefer the traditional tandoori chicken.

This dish is a little too spicy for me. Next time, I'll use less chili powder.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce turned out a little too watery. I think I might have added too much coconut milk.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I always have a few pieces of grilled chicken in my fridge, and this is the perfect way to turn them into a delicious meal.

I love the smoky flavor that the grilled chicken adds to this dish. It's a nice change from the traditional tandoori chicken.

I'm a vegetarian, so I substituted tofu for the chicken in this recipe. It turned out great! The tofu was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the sauce was just as flavorful as it would have been with chicken.

I'm not a big fan of Indian food, but this dish was surprisingly good. The chicken was tender and juicy, and the sauce was flavorful without being too spicy.

I followed the recipe exactly, and it turned out perfectly. The only thing I would change is to add a little more spice. Next time, I'll add an extra teaspoon of chili powder.

I love that this recipe uses grilled chicken instead of fried chicken. It makes the dish a little healthier, but it's still just as flavorful.
