It started during the [[Mughal Empire|Mughal]] era. Today, it is popular in many countries. It usually consists of small pieces of roast [[chicken]], with [[spice]]s. It is similar to [[tandoori chicken]], except that tandoori chicken also contains [[bone]]s. There are versions of chicken tikka in Afgan, Persian and Turkish cuisine, but usually they are less spicy than the versions from the Indian subcontinent. [[Chicken tikka masala]] is a similar dish, but it has a sauce, and likely originated in [[Great Britain]]. {{-}} [[Category:Pakistani food]] [[Category:Bangladeshi food]] [[Category:Indian food]] [[Category:Chicken as food]] {{Food-stub}}
