How many calories is it in a Chicken tikka masala? Just the chicken and sauce, no rice or naan.

Its the sauce that is the culprit. It has heavy cream, cashew nut paste(sometimes) and oil which comes to approximately 450calories per serving. I love it!! Yumm...Once in a while though...:)0

As an Indian who likes to cook I can tell you the non-spice items that goes in a chicken tikka. This is homemade though and the restaurant version might be different
2 lbs chicken (with bones)
1 cup of yogurt
2 tbsp lemon juice
4 tbsp oil (olive oil)
1 tbsp ginger+garlic paste
add them up. For a big guy like me this is 3 servings atleast
For a naah, again it'll depend on wha tkind of naan. Most Indian restaurants will have it covered with ghee, specially in buffets which drastically increases the calories but a typical naan that can be cut into 4 pieces is 250 calories0
