Healthy and Speedy Chicken Tikka Masala
This is our speedy and healthy version of the popular takeaway classic, Chicken Tikka Masala. There is no marinading involved and there are no hidden nasties in this. We have used chicken breasts for speed, Tims Dairy Greek Yogurt in place of the cream and jarred red peppers and a squeeze of honey for sweetness.
