Hello foodies… 🙂 Welcome back again to our blog tasty fry. There are lots of chicken recipes but I like chicken malai tikka most. Chicken Malai Tikka is best to make with thigh or breast pieces which is perfectly baked and grilled.

I still remember when we used to go on camping trips during college days. So we have had barbecue many times while camping in the mountains. Chicken Malai Tikka was our first choice to make. During camping, we had a senior whom we often called captain. He was the one who made the best and delicious malai tikka. I said to him, Sir, please teach me too, you make it so well, then he taught me, after that I made it myself many times during camping and everyone liked this dish.
