Ingredients

• 1.5 lb boneless chicken thighs, cut into chunks
• 1 cup plain yogurt
• 2 tbsp butter
• 1 can (15 oz) tomato sauce
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 tbsp garam masala
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp turmeric
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp salt

Directions

1. Mix chicken with yogurt, garam masala, turmeric, cumin, garlic, and salt. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes in the fridge.
2. Cook marinated chicken in a skillet over medium-high heat until lightly browned on all sides, about 8 minutes. Set aside.
3. Melt butter in the same skillet over medium heat, then pour in the tomato sauce and stir well, scraping up any browned bits from the pan.
4. Simmer the sauce for 5 minutes, then stir in the heavy cream and bring back to a gentle simmer.
5. Add the cooked chicken back into the pan and stir to coat. Simmer everything together for 10 minutes until the sauce thickens and the chicken is fully cooked through.
6. Serve hot over steamed rice or with warm naan bread.
