Chicken Tikka Starter

[Vanishingwoman]

Can anyone help me pleeeeeeease?

How many syns are in a chicken tikka starter from an Indian take away?

Its just dry chicken with a bit of salad so I am hoping it was syn free on extra easy? :wave_cry:

i would think it depends really, tikka is usually made by marinating in a yoghurt base and i doubt this would be fat free yoghurt and there is possibly some oil included however considering its a marinade this wouldnt carry to many syns. its usually then cooked in a tandoor oven which is just a flame in a pot effectively and thus wouldnt add any syns but i do see it grilled sometimes and if it has been its possible that oil will have been used to stop it from sticking. overall i would think its a good choice compared to other things you could have probably not quite syn free but considrably saintly compared to an oily take away curry

oh thanx!! considering my fella was sat eating a massive kebab - it took some will power to eat dry chicken - was like swallowing saw dust) and boiled rice!! so I think this time I will tell myself it must have been syn free due to the fact it was so dry and un-enjoyable lol
