If you are planning your first visit to our Canadian locations or gearing up for an epic takeout night, here is a deep dive into what you can expect from our world-renowned Baba Chicken menu.
The Star of the Show: Tandoori and Tikka Appetizers
You cannot look at the Baba Chicken menu without immediately gravitating toward our namesake dishes. We are widely recognized for serving some of the most succulent, flavor-packed chicken in the world.
- Tandoori Chicken: The dish that started it all. Our chicken is marinated in a carefully guarded, decades-old recipe consisting of fresh yogurt, ginger, garlic, and a proprietary blend of Indian spices. Roasted to absolute perfection in a traditional clay tandoor, the result is a smoky, vibrant red, and irresistible dish that melts in your mouth.
- Chicken Malai Tikka & Afghani Chicken Tikka: For those who prefer a milder, creamier flavor profile, our Malai Tikka is marinated in rich cream and subtle spices, offering a melt-in-the-mouth texture that perfectly contrasts the charred edges from the tandoor.
- Mutton Seekh Kebab: Fresh lamb mince mixed with ginger, garlic, fresh coriander, and freshly ground Indian herbs, skewered and roasted to juicy perfection.
A Symphony of Rich and Creamy Curries
While our appetizers set the stage, the main courses on the Baba Chicken menu are the true showstoppers. Our menu boasts an impressive array of traditional Punjabi curries, slowly simmered to allow the flavors to develop fully.
- Baba’s Butter Chicken (Boneless): Forget everything you know about standard butter chicken. Ours features tender, tandoor-cooked chicken simmered in a rich, velvety tomato-based gravy kissed with fenugreek and real butter. It strikes the perfect balance between tangy, savory, and creamy.
- Delhi Wala Butter Chicken: A slightly different take on the classic, bringing the specific, robust flavor profile of Delhi’s bustling culinary scene right to your plate.
- Chicken Kali Mirch (Black Pepper Chicken): Available in both semi-gravy and rich curry forms, this dish is an absolute must-try for spice lovers. Tender chicken is cooked in a rich, peppery sauce that delivers a warm, lingering heat.
- Daba Style Tari Wala Chicken (Bone-in): For the purists. This is the ultimate home-style chicken curry, featuring a thin but incredibly flavorful, spicy broth (tari) that is perfect for soaking up with rice or bread.
- Rara Meat (Goat): A meat lover’s dream, featuring tender pieces of goat cooked alongside rich mutton kheema (minced meat) in a heavily spiced, thick gravy.
Vegetarian Delights: Honoring Punjab’s Agrarian Roots
While “Chicken” is in our name, the Baba Chicken menu is highly inclusive of vegetarian diets, honoring the rich agricultural traditions of Punjab. Our vegetarian curries are crafted with the exact same care, complex spice blends, and dedication as our meat dishes.
- Baba Butter Paneer: Rich, soft cubes of fresh paneer swimming in our signature buttery tomato sauce.
- Karahi Paneer: A rustic, spicy dish cooked in a traditional wok (karahi) with bell peppers, onions, and freshly pounded coriander seeds and red chilies.
- Dal Makhani: No Punjabi menu is complete without it. Black lentils and kidney beans slow-cooked for hours over a low flame, finished with cream and butter for a rich, earthy flavor.
- Lemon Mushroom & Chilli Paneer: Fusion-inspired, Indo-Chinese classics that bring a tangy, spicy, and satisfying twist to the table.
Breads, Rice, and Perfect Pairings
A great curry demands a great vessel. The Baba Chicken menu features a wide variety of freshly baked breads straight from the tandoor. From the classic Butter Naan and Garlic Naan to the flaky, multi-layered Lachha Parantha and paper-thin Rumali Roti, there is a bread for every preference.
We also offer incredible stuffed naans—such as Keema Naan, Paneer Naan, and Onion Naan—served with a side of rich gravy for a complete, satisfying meal. Pair these with our fragrant, long-grain Chicken Biryani or simple Jeera Rice, and add a side of cool Raita to balance the robust spices.
