In a small bowl, toss the chicken pieces with half the salt, half the garam masala, and all of the turmeric until evenly coated.
Melt half the butter in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned on all sides, about 4 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining butter to the same skillet over medium heat. Sauté the onion until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic, ginger, and remaining garam masala, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the tomato sauce and the remaining salt. Return the chicken to the pan. Lower the heat and simmer gently until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened. Done when chicken is 165°F.
Stir in the heavy cream and remove from heat. Warm the naan in a separate dry pan or toaster. Garnish the chicken with cilantro and serve with the naan.
