Spiced Butter Chicken with Basmati Rice
Tender chicken breast simmered in a velvety spiced tomato and coconut sauce, served over a bed of fragrant, fluffy basmati rice.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken breast
0.5 cup Cooked basmati rice
2 tbsp Full-fat coconut milk
0.5 cup Tomato puree
1 tsp Ghee
2 tbsp Plain Greek yogurt
1 tsp Garam masala
0.5 tsp Turmeric powder
0.5 tsp Ground cumin
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Fresh ginger
0.25 cup Yellow onion
PREPARATION
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and toss with Greek yogurt, garam masala, turmeric, and cumin in a bowl to marinate.
Finely mince the garlic clove, grate the fresh ginger, and dice the yellow onion.
Heat the ghee in a large skillet over medium-high heat until melted and shimmering.
Add the marinated chicken to the skillet and sear until golden brown on all sides, then remove the chicken and set it aside.
In the same skillet, sauté the diced onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger until fragrant and the onions are translucent.
Pour in the tomato puree and simmer for 5 minutes, using a wooden spoon to scrape up any flavorful browned bits from the bottom.
Stir in the full-fat coconut milk and return the chicken to the pan, simmering for another 5-7 minutes until the sauce thickens and chicken is cooked through.
Season the sauce with sea salt and black pepper to taste.
Serve the spiced butter chicken immediately over the warm, cooked basmati rice.
