$2 Chicken Tikka Masala | But Cheaper

Where the hell does he buy his groceries? I’m in Southern California and there is no way in hell-La-Lel that you’re making that so cheap! No way! Not even considering the amount split into portions. Nope. Looks tasty.

Hey Josh, I know it's been a while since you posted this but I wanted to ask for clarification regarding the sugar measurement. You say to add 2 tsp (9g) of sugar, but for other spices, 3 tsp is 9g. Is this because sugar has a different density/weight? I'll be trying this very soon, thank you for sharing this recipe!

maybe $2 a serving 3 years ago but 3 years of Pedo Joes 300% inflation in food prices now its $12 dollars a serving!

which skillet are you using?

Boneless skinless thigh meat is at least twice as expensive as breast!

two types of dairy with meat and kosher salt lol this was my childhood food with a sausage lol

Great recipe I’m a good cook and I can tell it’s delicious

Thank you for making these films. You are fun and easy to watch and are putting out some pretty fun dishes!

Mmmmmm. Awesome video man

How is it different from butter chicken

I prefer to have a chicken tarka. It’s the same as a tikka only otter

My normal Indian restaurant is charging $18 for this. I decided to start making it myself and that's why am here. Fvck these restaurants

THE CUMIN IS WORTH IT

Dairy product prices had shot up here in the Philippines but I wanted to try cooking one of these. I do wonder if I can sacrifice the yogurt or the heavy cream (I may transition to all purpose cream if I find heavy cream too expensive)

Maybe I should switch heavy cream with coconut milk since it's less expensive and readily available fresh here in the Philippines?

1 cup of yogurt already costs ₱100 ($2) here. Sucks to be in a reverse golden age.

To an Indian this is offensive 😭

You should use grams for the ginger instead of measuring length on a veggie that can vary wildly in its girth.

I just tried indian food for the 1st time: Tika Masala, Chicken Pandoori, Goat 🐐, simossas, and a 1 Mango Lassie with the garlic 🧄 bread. Omg this was so good. I have alway been a Chinese food fan well not anymore.

My chicken sticks to the pan when I do this recipe 🤬 😖 HELP!

Thank you for great recipes and not charging people just to compliment your videos😊❤

This is why I have been learning to cook my favorite dishes. I love what I like and can eat it numerous times so I can't afford $15-20 per serving. Making big batches at home for $2 per serving is preferred, and I can stuff myself numerous times over the week!

You've added too much ginger and garam masala.

I’m trying this this Saturday will come to let you know what my family think ty

Turned out amazing👍

Hey I hope the next person reading be healed and encouraged I love you

Thank you for supplying a written recipe.

Why is a j making an Indian dish??

Your curry is not filter?

Bro you can’t have thousands thinking good food like chicken breast is saw dust, you gotta step it up

with all the the GM must taste terrible - I think your using way to much

What's the different between this and butter chicken ?

yeah I'm making pasta

The cheapest chicken is always, always, always a whole chicken. Learn to cut it, its not that hard.

I just made this and it came out amazing, thanks Joshua :)

made it tonight daugher loves it , great recipe for faster tikka masala👍

Joshua Weissman's Chicken Tikka Masala (Printable Version)

In a large bowl put 240 grams of full fat yogurt, 2 teaspoons or 6 grams of kosher salt, 1 1/4 tablespoon or 11 grams of Garam Masala.

Cut two pounds or 900 grams of boneless and skinless chicken thighs.

Mix all that together With the mixture in the bowl and allow to sit for 10 minutes at room temp but ideally overnight in the fridge.

In a medium to large deep sided skillet add just enough vegetable oil to coat the bottom of a pan.

Heat over medium high until nearly smoking then add all your chicken in batches and sear for two to three minutes per side so you get some nice Browning.

Once everything's seared remove all your chicken add a touch more oil if needed.

Lower the heat to medium.

Add a mix of 1 large yellow onion sliced, 1 two inch nub of Ginger thinly sliced, and 3 cloves of garlic also thinly sliced.

Season lightly with salt to draw the water out.

Saute for three to five minutes or until all the vegetables are softened.

Then add in 1 teaspoon or 3 grams of paprika, 1 teaspoon or 3 grams of cayenne powder, 1 tablespoon or 9 grams of Garam Masala, 2 teaspoons or 9 grams of granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon or 3 grams of ground cumin.

Saute until really fragrant.

Add a 15 ounce or 425 gram can of crushed tomatoes.

Stir that together and let it reduce for five minutes.

Pour all that into a blender and blend on high speed until as smooth as physically possible then place it back into the pan.

Bring it back to a simmer reduce the heat to low and add all of your cooked chicken.

Simmer stirring occasionally for 10 minutes.

Stir in one cup or 240 milliliters of heavy whipping cream and reduce for seven to eight more minutes stirring occasionally or until thickened.

Note;
I used the transcript to create this for myself. Even though I used the transcript It still turned out to be quite a bit of editing. So I decided to share, I hope its helpful to someone.

I came to your channel... because of Jordan...the Tik Tok King of foods to try. He said this was delicious...so your recipe was first in line 😋 Your recipe must be good 😊. New subscriber too!! Thanks for this post too!!💓

Just made this.... don't add cayenne. Waaayy too spicy.

ive watched Joshua for a while off and on, but found this recipe when looking for stuff i can cook for my dad who has to minimize/eliminate salt. so i made this without adding any salt, just the little that was in the tomatos and in the yogurt. very minimal. and it was so dang good i couldnt believe it. will definitely add it to my list of things to cook

My gf just rode me into the sunset cause I made this. Thank you papa

No peppers? Typical white man

1 tsp is 3 g, but 2 tsp of granulated sugar is 9g? Trying to cut the sugar for us Americans? 😂
