Ingredients

• Foster Farms Fresh & Natural Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast Fillets
• 8 Cloves of Garlic, minced
• 3-4 tsp Grated Ginger
• 2 tsp Coriander
• 2 tsp Cumin
• 4 tsp Turmeric
• 3 tsp Garam Masala
• 1.5 Cups Whole Milk Yogurt
• 1 Tbsp Salt
• 2-3 Tbsp Butter
• 1 Onion
• ¼ Cup Tomato Paste
• 6 Cardamom Pods
• 1-1.5 tsp Red Pepper Flakes
• 1 28 oz Can of Whole Peeled Tomatoes
• 2 Cups Heavy Cream

Directions

Combine ginger, garlic, coriander, cumin, turmeric, garam masala

Mix yogurt, salt, and half of your spices to your chicken. Marinate for at least 1 hour or overnight

Melt butter in a large pan and saute onion, cardamom, red pepper flakes, and tomato paste until onions are soft

Add remaining ½ of the spices for about 5 minutes

Roughly rush tomatoes with a fork and add to the pan. Bring to a boil and reduce heat simmering until sauce reduces, about 10 minutes

Add cream and continue simmering until sauce reduces for about 20 minutes and take off the heat

In a separate pan, drizzle oil in pan and saute onions for 1-2 minutes. Add chicken and sear on medium high heat until golden brown on each side. Add tomato paste and ½ of your yogurt marinade, stirring until fully incorporated

Combine both pans of ingredients and simmer for 20-30 minutes until reduced into a thick sauce and chicken is fully cooked (165ºF)

Serve with naan, rice, or your desired sides
