Rich and Creamy
For added richness, add heavy cream or coconut milk to the sauce. A smooth surface kids love is the consequence.
Nice and Recognizable Rice
Fluffy basmati rice is the standard chicken tikka masala side. It soaks up the rich sauce well due to its lightness. A bright and healthful veggie pleasure, this recipe pairs well with roasted broccoli or steamed peas.
