'''Chicken tikka''' is a [[chicken (food)|chicken]] dish originating in the [[Indian subcontinent]]; the dish is popular in [[India]], [[Bangladesh]] and [[Pakistan]].<ref>''Pop's Mops and Sops: Barbecue and Sauces from Around the World'', p. 76, by "B" "B" Quester</ref> It is traditionally small pieces of boneless chicken baked using [[skewer]]s on a brazier called angeethi after [[marinated|marinating]] in [[Indian spices]] and [[dahi (curd)|dahi]] (yogurt)—essentially a boneless version of [[tandoori chicken]].<ref name=Curryclub>{{cite book |author=[[Pat Chapman]] |title=Curry Club Tandoori and Tikka Dishes |year=1993 |publisher=[[Judy Piatkus|Piatkus]] |location=London |isbn=0-7499-1283-9}}</ref> The word ''[[Tikka (food)|tikka]]'' (Tike in Turkish, and Tikə in Azerbaijani) is a Persian word, meaning "bits" or "pieces". It is also a chicken dish served in [[Punjabi cuisine]]. The Kashmiri version of the dish, however, is grilled over red-hot coals, and does not always contain boneless pieces. The pieces are brushed with ''[[ghee]]'' (clarified butter) at intervals to increase its flavour, while being continuously fanned. It is typically eaten with green [[coriander]] and [[tamarind]] [[chutney]] served with onion rings and lemon, or used in preparing a [[chicken tikka masala|chicken ''tikka masala'']].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.deccanchronicle.com/videos/food-dining/chicken-tikka-recipes.html |title=Chicken Tikka Recipes |date=2019-01-12 |website=[[Deccan Chronicle]] |language=en |access-date=2019-01-24}}</ref><br />

A chicken ''tikka'' sizzler is a dish where chicken ''tikka'' is served on a heated plate with onions. The dish is also popular in [[Afghanistan]], though the Afghan variant (like many other [[Persian cuisine|Persian]], [[Turkish cuisine|Turkish]], and [[Arab cuisine|Arab]] dishes) is less [[spicy]] compared to the variants in the Indian subcontinent and uses beef and lamb in addition to chicken.<ref name=London>{{cite book |author=Pat Chapman |title=India: Food & Cooking |year=2007 |publisher=[[New Holland Publishers|New Holland]] |location=London |isbn=978-1-84537-619-2}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://gulf-times.com/story/619496 |title=Popular hariyali chicken tikka is mouthwatering |date=2019-01-17 |website=[[Gulf Times|Gulf-Times]] |language=ar |access-date=2019-01-24}}</ref><br />
