Chicken Tikka Masala
Tender chicken in a creamy, spiced tomato tikka masala sauce. Rich, comforting, and better than takeout over rice.
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs boneless chicken thighs, cut into chunks
- 3 tbsp Tikka Masala, divided
- 1 cup plain yogurt
- 2 tbsp oil
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp grated ginger
- 1 can (14 oz) crushed tomatoes
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Toss the chicken with 2 tbsp Tikka Masala and the yogurt. Marinate at least 30 minutes.
- Heat the oil in a large pan and brown the chicken in batches. Set aside.
- Cook the onion until soft, then add the garlic, ginger, and remaining 1 tbsp Tikka Masala. Cook 1 minute until fragrant.
- Stir in the crushed tomatoes and simmer 10 minutes.
- Return the chicken, add the cream, and simmer 10 to 15 minutes until the sauce is thick and the chicken is cooked through. Salt to taste and serve over rice.
