Special Chicken Tikka Platter

Chicken Tikka Platter – This platter is a tandoori lover’s dream: it brings you our savory chicken tikka (marinated, grilled chicken pieces) served over fragrant basmati rice, along with side salad and a soda for a complete meal[10]. It’s a close cousin to our Lamb Tikka Platter but features tender chicken breast/thigh chunks that have been marinated in yogurt and spices and then charred in the tandoor oven. The chicken tikka pieces are deeply flavorful – colored a tempting reddish-orange from spices like paprika and turmeric, and imbued with smoky notes from the grill.

We plate up a generous serving of these boneless chicken bites on top of our seasoned rice. The rice is subtly spiced and buttery, making a perfect pairing with the spiced chicken. When you scoop up a forkful of rice with a piece of chicken, you get a beautiful blend of textures and tastes: the soft, aromatic rice and the juicy, slightly smoky chicken. Many diners like to mix the chicken and rice together, letting the tikka’s juices season the rice even more.

On the side of the platter, you’ll find our fresh salad – crisp lettuce, cucumber, tomato, and onion – which adds a refreshing crunch and balances the warm spices of the chicken. You can sprinkle some fresh lemon (we include a wedge) over the chicken and salad for a pop of brightness (lemon and tandoori chicken go hand in hand). We also include a cool raita (yogurt-cucumber sauce) on request, which you can spoon onto the chicken and rice. That adds a creamy tang that merges well with the spices without overpowering them. And, as with all our platters, a chilled can of soda accompanies it to help wash down the meal pleasantly.

The Chicken Tikka Platter is both hearty and wholesome. It’s a fantastic choice if you’re looking for an authentic taste of Pakistani/Indian cuisine but in a format that feels like a familiar one-plate meal. You get your protein, your carbs, and your veggies all together, much like a classic dinner but with exotic flair. It’s also generally milder in taste than the lamb platter (chicken tikka is spiced but not usually very hot unless you request extra heat), so it appeals to a wide range of palates. Kids, for instance, often enjoy this platter as much as adults do.

One of the joys of this dish is its aroma – when it arrives at your table (or when you open the takeout container), you immediately smell the fragrant spices and char of grilled chicken, which is sure to make your mouth water. The Chicken Tikka Platter is one of our best sellers for good reason: it’s comfort food with a burst of flavor. Whether you’re a long-time fan of chicken tikka or trying it for the first time, this platter delivers satisfaction. It’s not just a meal, but a little journey to a Punjabi barbecue, right on your plate.

(If you’re in the mood, ask for a little side of our spicy chutney – a dab of that on a piece of chicken tikka or mixed into the rice can set your taste buds dancing if you like an extra kick. But even as-is, this platter is an absolute delight for a lunchtime energy boost or a fulfilling dinner.)
