INGREDIENTS
• 2 tablespoon oil
• 1 medium onion diced
• 1 teaspoon fresh ginger finely minced or grated (or use paste)
• 2-3 cloves garlic finely minced or crushed
• 1 ½ pounds about 2-3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into ¾-inch chunks
• 1 can 6 oz. tomato paste (or 8-10 oz can of tomato sauce)
• 1 tablespoon Momma T's Garam Masala
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 1 cup heavy cream sub for half & half or yogurt for low fat
• Hot cooked rice and naan for serving
HARDWARE: Large Pan
Instructions
[1] Heat a large skillet or medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the oil and onions and cook onions down until lightly golden, about 3-4 minutes. Add ginger and garlic and let cook for 30 seconds, stirring so it doesn’t burn.
[2] Add the chicken, tomato paste, and Momma T's Garam Masala. Cook for 5-6 minutes or until everything is cooked through.
[3] Add the heavy cream and simmer for 8-10 minutes stirring occasionally. Serve over Basmati rice or with naan.
