Make Karachi-Style Chicken Tikka in Your Home Kitchen

There’s no surprise that working in a restaurant is a difficult job. Ever wonder why? It’s because cooking in a restaurant requires multitasking and handling stress in a fast-paced environment.

Lucky for you, we've already done the hard work! Yet, you can still feel like a master chef from the comfort of your home.

Simply follow the method below to make Karachi-Style Chicken Tikka. Feel free to add your own twist—some might add just salt, others may mellow out the spice with yogurt, and the bold ones will take it up a notch with hot sauce. No matter what you do, you have the secret ingredient in Anmol’s Chicken Tikka Marinade.

Ingredients

Method

Step 1: Open the Jar (We’re Kidding… Kinda)

  1. Open the jar.
  2. Grab a spoon.
  3. Insert the spoon into the jar.
  4. Tilt it at an angle to extract the marinade and pull it out.

Okay, let’s get serious now.

Step 2: Coat the Chicken with Marinade

  • Generously apply the marinade to the chicken.
  • We recommend using skinless chicken leg quarters, but hey, you’re the chef—do as you please!

Step 3: Let the Marinade Work Its Magic

  • Ensure the marinade is evenly applied throughout the chicken.
  • For the best results, marinate for 12 hours to allow the flavors to peak. If you're in a hurry, even an hour will do—but trust us, patience pays off!

Step 4: Baking & Roasting Option (If You Want It Easy)

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Roast, bake, or air-fry for 20-25 minutes, ensuring the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

Step 5: The Real Karachi-Style Tikka Experience (For Serious Cooks)

Now, let’s roll up our sleeves, grab the oven mitts, and set this chicken on fire!

  1. Set your oven to broil (preferably on HIGH, around 400°F) and preheat.
  2. If you have a sheet rack, place it on a baking tray for better airflow. If not, place the chicken directly on the tray.
  3. Arrange the chicken evenly, ensuring the meatier side faces up.

Broiling Process

🔥 First Side:
  • Place the tray on the top oven rack, closest to the heat source.
  • Broil for 7-8 minutes until you see a beautiful char.
🔄 Flip & Repeat:
  • Carefully remove the tray and flip each piece using tongs.
  • Close the oven door quickly to retain heat.
  • Broil the other side for another 7-8 minutes.
✔️ Final Cooking Stage:
  • Once you’ve got the perfect char, switch your oven to 350°F (175°C) and roast/bake for an additional 5-10 minutes (depending on chicken size) to ensure it’s fully cooked.
  • The internal temperature must reach 165°F (75°C).

Step 6: Enjoy Your Masterpiece

Congratulations! If you followed Step 5, you should be proud of yourself—because we certainly are!

Now, grab a plate, serve yourself a generous portion (and maybe share a little with the rest of the family). Enjoy The Original Anmol Chicken Tikka! 

Final Notes

✅ Want extra sizzle? Grab a spoon full of Anmol’s Chicken Tikka masala, equal parts oil, mix it and brush it on to all sides of your chicken during the final cooking stage.
✅ Want smokier flavor? Use a charcoal smoke method—place a lit charcoal piece in a small bowl inside the tray, drizzle some oil over it, and cover for 5 minutes.
✅ Serving Suggestion: Serve with naan, chutney, and fresh lemon wedges for the ultimate experience.
