Yes, you can, but it might not be the norm. Traditional tikka masala uses chicken, but there's no law against using beef. Just go for it!
I tried beef in my tikka masala once, and it turned out surprisingly good! Just marinate the beef well and adjust the cooking time, and you’ll have a delicious dish.
Beef tikka masala? Sure, why not! Traditional recipes usually use chicken, but beef can be a tasty twist. Just make sure to adjust your cooking times because beef will need a bit more love to get tender.
