Ingredients

1½ lbs Foster Farms Free Range Simply Raised® Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast Fillets, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 tbsps butter, divided
1 onion, chopped
1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 tsps garam masala
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp ground cumin
½ tsp ground turmeric
1½ cups tomato sauce
1 cup whole milk
-- | naan flatbread
Hot cooked jasmine rice and/or fresh parsley (optional)

Directions

1. In a large, heavy skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat until hot. Add the chicken thigh fillets; cook and stir to brown chicken on all sides. (The chicken does not need to be fully cooked at this point.) Transfer the chicken to a bowl.

2. In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat until hot. Add onion, ginger, and garlic, and then cook and stir the mixture for 5 to 8 minutes or until onion is tender. Add garam masala, chili powder, cumin, and turmeric. Cook and stir about 1 minute more or until the spices are fragrant. Add tomato sauce. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, and reduce heat. Simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

3. Return the chicken to the skillet, and add the whole milk. Return to a gentle simmer. Simmer 10 to 15 minutes more or until the chicken is cooked through (the center reaches an internal temperature of 165°F).

4. Serve the chicken mixture with naan flatbread. If desired, serve over hot cooked jasmine rice with a sprinkling of fresh parsley.

COOK CHICKEN TO A SAFE INTERNAL TEMPERATURE OF AT LEAST 165°F. ALWAYS use a meat thermometer to determine the temperature. Do not rely solely on suggested cooking times. Cooking appliances vary in temperature and cooking times are a GUIDE ONLY. See our Internal Temperature Guide for more information.
