Actually, it can depend on the recipe. Some versions might sneak in a bit of coconut milk for extra richness, but it's not the norm.
Hot take: Authentic chicken tikka masala should never have coconut in it. Stick to cream and tomatoes for the classic flavor!
I've made chicken tikka masala a ton of times, and I've never used coconut. It's all about that creamy tomato base!
