Malai Tikka is an aromatic Indian chicken curry that's rich in protein and full of traditional flavor. Perfect for family gatherings, this chicken dish pairs beautifully with rice or naan for a complete meal.
Cut boneless chicken breast into 1.5-inch cubes for even cooking and place in a large mixing bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk together heavy cream, Greek yogurt, grated mozzarella, onion, ginger paste, and garlic paste until smooth.
Add lemon juice, garam masala, coriander powder, ground cumin, white pepper, and salt to the marinade; mix well for uniform seasoning.
Pour the marinade over the chicken pieces, ensuring all surfaces are well coated; cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (up to 4 hours for extra tenderness).
Thread marinated chicken onto skewers, letting excess marinade drip off.
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) or prepare a grill over medium-high heat; lightly brush the grates or a baking rack with oil.
Arrange skewers on the grill or rack; roast or grill for 15–18 minutes, turning halfway through, until chicken is cooked through and slightly charred at the edges.
Optional: Broil for 2 minutes at the end for extra char, watching closely to prevent burning.
Rest the Malai Tikka for 3 minutes before serving to retain juices and enhance flavor.
