So when a beloved Indian recipe becomes viral on the internet, it is a moment to be proud of. Well, we have some great news for foodies! In the latest list of 50 Best Chicken Dishes from around the world, Taste Atlas has ranked 4 Indian recipes. The evergreen Butter Chicken is on number 4, followed by Tikka on number 6, Chicken 65 on number 10 and the delicious Tandoori Chicken on number 18.

The dish falls on number 21. In the comment section below, many passionate foodies are calling Chicken Tikka Masala an Indian recipe, not a dish from UK. For instance, one social media user shared, “Chicken Tikka Masala is an Indian dish not British @tasteatlas”, whereas another angry netizen asked, “How come chicken tikka masala became british 😂 look at the name itself!!
