How to Cook Creamy Chicken Tikka Masala

 

       I sometimes cook this homemade chicken tikka masala. It's pretty easy to cook and tastes really good. It's creamy, spicy and flavorful. My husband and I really love our homemade chicken tikka masala.  Today, I'm going to share how I cooked chicken tikka masala with you.

Ingredients for 6 Servings

1 to 2 Lb of Chicken (Cut into Bite Sizes)  (*I sometimes use leftover Costco rotisserie chicken, so I don't need to cook meat and I can skip step 1.)

2 Teaspoons of Cumin Seeds

4 Tablespoons of Ginger (Minced)

4 Cloves of Garlic(Minced)

2 Onions (Minced)

2 Teaspoons of Turmeric

4 Tablespoons of Garam Masala

2 Teaspoons of Sugar

4 Tomatoes (Cut in Dices) or 28 oz of Canned Diced Tomatoes

180 ml of Heavy Whipping Cream or Plain Yogurt

1/2 Cup of Cilantro

1. Heat oil in a pan over high heat and saute chicken until chicken surface turns white. Move the cooked chicken onto the plate.

2. Heat oil in a pan over high heat. Add cumin seeds, ginger, garlic in it.  

3. Add onions and cook them for 5 minutes.

4. Add turmeric, garam masala and sugar in it. Cook them for 2 minutes.

5. Add tomatoes, and cook them for 5 minutes.

6. Add chicken of step 1. Cook them until chicken is thoroughly cooked.

7. Add whipping cream or plain yogurt. Stir and cook them for 3 minutes.

8. Serve and top it with cilantro. Enjoy!

     I purchased this Greek pita bread at my local grocery store in order to substitute it for naan. The chicken tikka masala went well with this flat bread. :)
