Experience the ultimate in tender tandoori perfection with our Chicken Malai Tikka! This exquisite dish features succulent boneless chicken pieces marinated in a luxurious blend of creamy yogurt, melted cheese, and delicate aromatic spices. Our chefs carefully grill each piece over charcoal in our traditional tandoor, resulting in a dish that's incredibly soft and juicy with a subtle yet irresistible flavor profile. The name "Malai" refers to the creaminess of the marinade, which creates a melt-in-your-mouth experience that has made this one of our most beloved tandoor specialties.
Our Chicken Malai Tikka represents the pinnacle of tandoori craftsmanship, combining tender quality chicken with a rich, creamy marinade that's both subtle and satisfying. The preparation begins with premium boneless chicken pieces that are carefully marinated in a special blend of yogurt, fresh cream, and melted cheese, along with our signature blend of aromatic spices including cardamom, nutmeg, and white pepper.
What sets our Chicken Malai Tikka apart is the perfect balance of flavors and the precise cooking technique in our traditional tandoor. The high heat of the tandoor seals in the moisture while creating a beautiful char that adds depth to the dish. The result is chicken that's incredibly tender, juicy, and packed with flavor - truly a melt-in-your-mouth experience. This dish is perfect for those who appreciate the subtle elegance of North Indian cuisine and enjoy dishes that are rich in flavor without being overpoweringly spicy.
At Baba's Chicken, we use only the finest ingredients to create our Chicken Malai Tikka.

This dish is a true crowd-pleaser, perfect as an appetizer or enjoyed as part of a complete meal with fresh naan and aromatic rice. It's especially popular among diners who love tender, flavorful chicken without the heat, making it a versatile choice for any occasion.
