Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Combine chilies, cilantro, yogurt, tomato paste, ginger paste, garlic paste, tikka masala, food coloring, and salt in a glass or ceramic bowl. Add chicken and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours, up to overnight.
Step 2
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray.
Step 3
Bake chicken in the preheated oven for 10 minutes; flip and spray with cooking spray. Continue to bake until chicken is no longer pink in the centers and juices run clear, 5 to 10 minutes more. Turn on the oven's broiler. Broil until browned, 3 to 5 minutes more.
