I've had Chicken Tikka Masala that's both mild and spicy. It typically depends on how much spice the chef or cook adds.
Not really. Chicken Tikka Masala is more about the creamy, tomato-based sauce than the heat. But hey, you can always spice it up!
Hot take: Chicken Tikka Masala isn't usually that spicy; it's just your friendly, warm hug of a curry.
As someone who lives for spice, I always ask for it extra hot! But traditionally, it's pretty mild.
