Fish Tikka

A delicious fish tikka recipe made with fish chunks marinated in a spicy sauce. Bake this fish tikka kebab recipe in the oven or grill it on the outdoor BBQ. These fish skewers will soon become your new favourite summer barbeque recipe.

Serve over chapatis or naan bread to make this speedy Indian-inspired supper. This fish tikka is juicy, moist, and so flavourful. These spicy fish kebabs are best served as an appetizer, but it is also great for dinner parties and family gatherings.

This recipe is perfect for iftar and just in time for Ramadan! This fish tikka is one of my absolute favourite fish dishes to make. Usually, I serve it alongside naan bread and some salad.

Marination is key in this recipe as it allows the fish to soak up all the flavours and make the fish come out so tender, juicy, and succulent. However, with fish, it is best not to marinate for too long as the fish can become mushy. Try to keep the marination time between 30 minutes to 1 hour.

I usually use cod fish for this fish recipe, but you could use a wide variety of fish species. I have tried this recipe with haddock and plaice fish. Both times it has tasted just as good. It all depends on your type of preference on which fish you like to eat.
