Sometimes it's best to be easy! Here too I sometimes run out of time and I just have to have a meal on the table quickly. I ducked into my pantry and vegetable drawer in my fridge for this chicken thigh tikka masala with salsa. So I got a jar of tikka masala from the pantry and those delicious crunchy papadums. In the fridge I found a mango and avocado which fits perfectly with this tikka masala dish. Now I don't like very spicy food and that is often a curry! So I didn't use too much from the jar and with a little coconut milk you can easily make it a bit softer in taste. Chicken tikka masala recipe

Chicken thigh tikka masala with salsa

The tikka masala in a British Indian dish. It is the most popular curry in the UK. Of course, there is still plenty to speculate about its origin. Because who was the first to make it? Is it a derivative of the butter chicken served in Delhi? Or because a Brit in Glasgow thought his chicken was too dry and the chef served it with tomato sauce. Anyway it said, the sauce is from the well-known brand Patak's.

You need:

Ingredients:

  • 300 gram chicken thigh
  • 1 avocado
  • ½ Red pepper
  • 1 mango
  • 1 small red pepper
  • 2 spring onions

From the pantry:

  • 1 pot of tikka masala from Patak's
  • 1 pack pappadums from Patak's
  • coconut milk
  • wok oil

Nice and easy: click on the logo of your favorite supermarket to add the ingredients.

And this is how you make it:

  • First cut the chicken thigh into cubes. Heat the wok or frying pan and add a little bit of oil. Fry the chicken thighs until golden brown. Add a few spoonfuls of tikka masala. (Not the whole pot).
  • Let this simmer gently. If you want it a little less spicy and a little creamier, add a little coconut milk.
  • Cut the avocado, mango and bell pepper into small cubes. The onion in rings. And finely chop the red pepper. Mix the salsa together in a bowl.
  • Place the chicken thigh in a bowl and top with the salsa. Serve with the crispy papadums.
  • Delicious bites!
Can also be served with a tortilla in which you scoop everything. 
Over and store salsa in the fridge? Then a little lemon juice on it then the avocado does not turn brown.
