Fish Tikka Masala is a rich, delicious, zingy dish that is full of flavour. In this recipe the fish is marinaded then flash fried/pan seared. It is then added to a creamy Masala sauce.

Cut fish into 1 inch pieces and pat dry.

Marinade in Lemon Juice, Garlic, Ginger, Yoghurt, Cumin Powder, Coriander Powder, Cinnamon Powder, Cardamom Powder, Turmeric Powder, Chilli Powder, Garam Masala, Salt, Black Pepper and Fish Fry powder (if using). Leave aside for 30 minutes. 

Heat oil and Ghee in a frying pan. Once hot, turn the heat down, add the fish and cook for a minute. Turn the heat up and flip after 2 minutes. Cook for a further 2 minutes. Remove from the pan.

In the same pan, add Cumin and once it sizzles add chopped Onion and fry till a deep golden brown. Around 15 minutes on medium low.

Add Ginger, Garlic and Green Chilli and cook for 2 minutes.

Stir in tomatoes plus  leftover marinade and simmer on low for 10 minutes. Turn the heat up and let the masala bubble away for 10 more minutes on medium high.

Add Turmeric, Cumin Powder, Coriander Powder, Red Chilli Powder, Chilli Flakes, Salt and Pepper. Cook for 5 minutes. 

Add Fenugreek and Garam Masala. Cook for 1 minute on high. 

Stir Sour Cream and Milk in a bowl and then add to a pan. Simmer for 1 minute.

Add Fish. Cook covered on low for 2 - 3 minutes. 

Serve with Fresh Coriander and Lemon Juice over the top.

A quick, easy, and mess-free Salmon Tikka recipe that&#39;s surprisingly delicious. Salmon (or your choice of fish) is coated in a flavorful marinade, then oven-broiled until it&#39;s moist and tender on the inside and slightly charred on the outside. Includes baking, pan-frying, and air-fryer instructions.

25-Minute Salmon Tikka (Fish Tikka)

salmon

olive oil

½ tbsp lemon or lime juice

garlic

paprika chili powder

coriander powder

cumin powder

½ tsp black pepper

red chili powder

tsp fine sea salt

parsley

Mint Coriander Raita (optional, for serving)

Red onions

Remove the skin from the salmon and cut into 1 1/2-inch/4 cm pieces.

Place all the ingredients except the salmon in a medium bowl and whisk to combine. Add salmon and toss to coat. Allow to marinate for at least 10 minutes, up to an hour.

When you’re ready to cook the salmon, preheat oven broiler to high (550°F / 289°C) for 10 minutes. Place your oven rack on the top shelf so it’s close to the heat source. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper.

Place the salmon on the lined baking sheet 1” apart. Brush the excess marinade over the salmon pieces.

Transfer the baking sheet to the top rack of the oven and broil for 7-8 minutes, until golden brown and slightly charred on top (internal temperature 145°F). Keep an eye on the salmon because it goes from charred to burnt within seconds, and you want to make sure not to overcook. (See Note) I find I need to rotate my pan midway for even browning.

Garnish with more parsley/cilantro if you’d like. Serve immediately with mint raita, sliced red onions, lemon wedges, and choice of sides.
