Experience the bold, fiery flavors of our Chicken Kali Mirch Tikka, a tandoori specialty that showcases the incredible taste of black pepper! This dish features succulent boneless chicken pieces marinated in a spicy blend of coarsely crushed black pepper (kali mirch), yogurt, and a carefully selected mix of traditional Punjabi spices. Our chefs generously coat each piece with the bold peppery marinade before grilling them to perfection in our traditional tandoor. The result is chicken that's perfectly tender and juicy on the inside, with a beautifully charred crust that delivers a satisfying kick of heat and complex spiciness with every bite. This dish is a true celebration of bold flavors!
Our Chicken Kali Mirch Tikka celebrates one of the world's most beloved spices - black pepper. "Kali Mirch" literally means black pepper in Hindi, and this dish puts this aromatic spice front and center. Premium boneless chicken pieces are generously marinated in a bold blend of freshly ground black pepper, creamy yogurt, and a special mix of traditional Punjabi spices that complement the peppery heat. The black pepper in the marinade is used in generous amounts, giving the chicken a distinctive, robust flavor and a pleasant heat that builds gradually with each bite.
The cooking method in our traditional tandoor is what makes this dish truly special. The intense heat of the tandoor creates a beautiful char on the outside while keeping the chicken incredibly moist and tender on the inside. The black pepper in the marinade caramelizes slightly during cooking, developing complex, aromatic flavors that are both spicy and incredibly satisfying. This dish is perfect for those who love bold flavors and appreciate the unique taste of black pepper. It's spicy without being overwhelming, and the heat is balanced by the creamy yogurt in the marinade and the natural juiciness of the perfectly cooked chicken.
At Baba's Chicken, we use only the finest quality black peppercorns for our Chicken Kali Mirch Tikka, ensuring each piece is coated with fresh, aromatic pepper that delivers maximum flavor. Our chefs' expertise in tandoor cooking ensures the chicken is grilled to perfection - tender and juicy with a beautiful smoky char. This dish represents authentic Punjabi tandoori cuisine at its boldest, offering a unique flavor experience that's both spicy and incredibly flavorful. Whether enjoyed as an appetizer or part of a complete meal, our Chicken Kali Mirch Tikka is perfect for anyone who loves bold, fiery tandoori flavors and appreciates the distinctive taste of black pepper.
