C Correct answer
Explanation

In Hindi and Urdu, the word 'tikka' literally means 'pieces' or 'bits.' Chicken tikka refers to pieces of marinated chicken that are grilled or roasted. The term specifically describes the form, small pieces of meat, rather than any specific body part. Option C is correct. The other options (nose, wings, legs) refer to specific chicken body parts, which is not what tikka means.
