The chicken is sticky, sour and sweet; tastes great with the rice but two things to take care of while making this: Image courtesy: Cooking with Crystal. 1. Make sure you have the right kind of honey. Some types leave a certain smell and taste that overpowers and completely ruins the dish. What you're looking for isn't the flavor of the honey. It's the sticky texture and the smoky sweetness you can't get from processed sugar. If you're not a fan of honey, you can use unprocessed brown sugar but it won't retain the quality or texture given by using honey. 2. The sauce needs to be just right. If it's too thick, you won't be able to eat it with the rice because it'll dry up once cold. If it's too thin, it'll ruin the chicken and produce a dish that at best can be pronounced 'blah'. We're not looking for blah. We're looking for wowza. Okay, back to the recipe. Ingredients Chicken Chicken Breast 5...

Quick. Simple. SO GOOD. Ingredients Eggs 2 Salt To taste Black Pepper ¼ tsp Red Chili Powder ½ tsp Oregano ¼ tsp Spinach Leaves Washed and chopped into little pieces Mozzarella Cheese ½ cup Oil For frying Method Beat the eggs and add the seasoning with the spinach leaves. The quantity of the spinach is up to you; I used about  ½ cup but you can adjust according to your taste. Oil a pan and spread the mixture on it. Once the bottom side is lightly cooked, flip and sprinkle the cheese all over it. Fold in half and gently cook on low heat until done. Serve hot. 

I have only these words of warning for you: Lots of tomato puree. Lots of onion. Lots of spice. If you're not a fan of either of those, please go look at another milder, less tomatoey recipe. This one here is not what you want. For those who do love Mexican food (albiet a bit desi style) you'll use this recipe again and again. Seriously. It's long. Has a lot of steps but it's pretty simple and completely worth it. Also, those leftovers omg.

So, I used mutton in this recipe instead of chicken (which is used in the original recipe over here ). If you want to make this with chicken then you'll have to vary the amount of spices used since they tend to overpower the bland chicken meat. I like my tikka masala full of flavor and if you prefer a milder version then please adjust the spices according to your taste. Ingredients For Marinade Boneless Mutton Pieces 1 kg Yogurt ½ cup Cream 3-4 tbsp Garlic Paste Of 5 cloves Ginger Powder ½ tsp Tikka Masala 3-4 tbsp Red Chilli Powder 1 – 1½ tsp Paprika ½ tsp Garam Masala ½ tsp Cumin 1 tbsp (ground) Salt 1 tsp Lemon Juice Of 3 lemons Ghee/ Butter 1-2 tbsp (melted) For Sauce/Gravy Ghee/ Butter ...
