When cutting your Chicken Breasts Don't cut into cubes for Marinating I have found better results by cutting the meat into strips lenghtways (like Chicken Fillets) then cut into cubes after marinating plus it's easier to handle the Marinated Chicken when removing from plastic bag

The Raw Chicken must be placed on a rack above a roasting tin so the juices can run freely thus avoiding the meat being stewed in it's own juices and making the meat go tuff also the oven Must be on it's highest (pre-heated) setting.
Remove once cooked and let it rest for about 20 mins then pre-heat a griddle pan or frying pan add a drop of oil then add your Peppers fry for 2 mins (on high heat) then add your Onions and chicken + Coriander for 5 mins and that's it DONE.

Please try this recipe But you must let chicken marinade 24 hours and let me know what you think.
Good Luck

Thank you for this recipe. I look forward to trying it and wonder if it will surpass Blade1212's tikka recipe, which I currently see as the 'gold standard':

If any others are able to draw comparisons between the various tikka recipes, I'd be very interested to hear how you think they compare.
