In my late teens, I developed several deadly food allergies that changed the way I looked at food. Gone were the days of indulging in my favorite childhood comfort foods. They were now off limits. I tried Indian food for the first time after I gained my new dietary restrictions and I was hooked.
The first dish that caught my attention was Chicken Tikka Masala. The tender chicken, marinated in yogurt and a blend of spices, became my new comfort food. It’s flavorful, warm, and so satisfying—everything I needed when I couldn’t enjoy so many of the foods I grew up with.
Now, Chicken Tikka Masala has become a staple in my kitchen. It’s not just a meal; it’s a reminder that food can still be rich in flavor and comfort, even when it has to be made with a little more care. It’s my go-to dish when I need a boost—simple, delicious, and filled with memories of finding joy in new flavors.
