Chicken Tikka Masala with Basmati Rice
Sautéed chicken breast simmered in a velvety, spiced tomato and coconut sauce, served over fluffy basmati rice for a comforting and aromatic meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup basmati rice, cooked
0.5 cup tomato puree
2 tbsp full-fat coconut milk
1 tsp ghee
0.25 cup yellow onion, diced
1 tsp garlic, minced
1 tsp ginger, grated
1 tsp garam masala
0.5 tsp turmeric
0.5 tsp cumin
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
PREPARATION
Cut the chicken breast into 1-inch cubes and season them evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the ghee in a large skillet over medium-high heat until melted and shimmering.
Add the chicken cubes to the skillet and sear until golden brown on all sides, then remove the chicken and set it aside.
In the same skillet, add the diced onion, garlic, and ginger, sautéing for 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent and fragrant.
Stir in the garam masala, turmeric, and cumin, allowing the spices to toast in the fat for about 30 seconds.
Pour in the tomato puree and stir to combine, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer for 5 minutes.
Whisk in the full-fat coconut milk until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
Return the seared chicken to the skillet and simmer for an additional 5 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
Serve the chicken tikka masala over the warm cooked basmati rice and garnish with fresh chopped cilantro.
