How Chicken Tikka Masala fits in your diet
A 1 bowl (~200 g) of chicken tikka masala contributes about 18% of a 2,000-kcal daily target and roughly 28% of an average adult's 50 g daily protein floor. Typically made with chicken, yogurt, tomato, cream, spices.
Grilled chicken pieces (tikka) in a creamy spiced tomato sauce. For a balanced Indian plate, pair it with a protein source (dal, paneer, eggs or chicken), a sabzi and a small portion of curd or salad. Restaurant or street-style versions can run 20–40% higher in calories because of extra oil, ghee or cream — adjust portion size accordingly.
