Easy Chicken Tikka Masala

Hello everyone 👋🏾.

Today I want to share with you the recipe of the most popular Indian dish 🇮🇳: Chicken Tikka Masala.
My children love eating Chicken Tikka Masala. I usually serve this with basmati rice and naan for a complete meal.

Ingredients

• Onion
• Garlic
• Ginger
• Garam masala
• Chili flakes
• Tomato puree
• Chicken meat
• Vegetable or chicken stock
• Coconut milk
• Lime
• Cilantro
• Oil

Instructions

• Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic. Peel the ginger tuber and grate it finely on a grater.
• Heat a large pan over medium to high heat, with oil. Now toast all the dry spices in the oil for approx. 2 minutes.
• Add the garlic, ginger and onion to the pan. Add a little extra oil if needed. Fry everything for 5 minutes.
• Cut the chicken into cubes. Add the chicken thighs and let them brown well on each side. Avoid stirring too much, as the chicken should fry and not boil.

• Now add the tomato puree and let it shake well with the other ingredients.
  

• Now turn down the heat and add a little of the stock and the coconut milk.
• Let the dish simmer on low heat for 5-10 minutes. Thin with extra stock if the sauce becomes too thick.
  

• Serve Tikka masala with cooked rice, warm soft naan bread, fresh coriander and lime wedges.
