How to Make Tikka Marinade
- In a blender, combine 1 cup plain yogurt, 1/4 cup lemon juice, 2 tablespoons ginger-garlic paste, 1 tablespoon garam masala, 1 tablespoon paprika, 1 teaspoon turmeric powder, 1 teaspoon chili powder (adjust to your spice preference), 1 teaspoon cumin powder, 1/2 teaspoon coriander powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Add the marinade to 4 servings (approximately 1.5 lbs) of your chosen protein (chicken, pork, or prawns) in a glass bowl or resealable bag.
- Ensure the protein is fully coated in the marinade.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, for maximum flavor infusion.
- Grill, bake, or pan-fry the marinated protein until cooked through. Serve immediately with basmati rice and your favorite sides.
