Chicken Tikka Masala

Chicken Tikka Masala is a flavorful dish featuring tender chicken breast marinated in yogurt, garlic, and ginger, then braised in a creamy tomato-based sauce seasoned with aromatic garam masala spices. The result is a rich, slightly spicy curry with a velvety texture that coats the succulent chicken pieces, creating a delightful fusion of flavors in every bite.

The rich, creamy texture and aromatic spices of Chicken Tikka Masala pair well with the crisp acidity and subtle sweetness of a sparkling wine, which helps to refresh the palate between bites. Alternatively, a white wine like Chenin Blanc, with its bright fruit flavors and zesty acidity, can complement the dish's spicy notes. For red wine lovers, a light-bodied Mencia offers a fruity and slightly peppery profile that won't overpower the delicate flavors of the curry.
