- Place yogurt and tikka paste in a non-metalic bowl. Add the ginger, sugar, chili powder and salt and stir well to combine. Add chicken and stir to coat. Cover and marinate for up to 1 hour at room temperature or overnight in fridge. If using wooden skewers, leave to soak in cold water for 20 minutes to prevent burning.
- Soak saffron in 2 tbsp hot water for 5 mins. Place saffron liquid, cream, almonds, and garam masala in a pan. Heat until sauce boils and thickens. Remove from heat and season to taste.
- Preheat broiler to high. Thread chicken on to 8 skewers. Broil for 8-10 minutes, turning once and brushing with remaining marinade until cooked. Reheat sauce. Serve kebabs with the sauce, rice, cilantro and lime wedges.
