lamb tikka
Spiced grilled meat
Lamb tikka is an Indian dish of lamb pieces marinated in yogurt and spices, then grilled or roasted in a tandoor oven.
The chunks are typically boneless and served as an appetizer or main course, often with naan bread and chutney: We ordered lamb tikka as a starter.
Like chicken tikka, it's a staple of South Asian restaurant menus worldwide.
