THE BEST CHICKEN TIKKA MASALA
Chicken Tikka Masala is thought to have been created by a Bangladeshi chef in Glasgow in the 1960s. It's a spicy, tomato-based dish seasoned with garlic, ginger, fenugreek and garam masala. In this recipe we used fenugreek leaves for their nutty and slightly minty flavor. If you can't find them, substitute dried mint leaves and a pinch of ground fenugreek. Garam masala is a popular Indian spice blend that usually includes black and white pepper, cloves, cinnamon, mace, cardamom, bay, cumin and coriander. It's pretty easy to find in your local grocery store and most national spice companies.

Steps:
- For the chicken marinade: Whisk together the yogurt, ginger, salt, chili powder, garam masala, pepper, turmeric and garlic in a large bowl until combined. Toss the chicken in the spiced yogurt marinade until evenly coated. Wrap tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 3 hours and up to 24. (Overnight works best.)
- For the sauce: Melt the ghee in a large Dutch oven or wide heavy pot over medium heat. Add the onions and serrano, season with 1 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden and beginning to caramelize, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the ginger and garlic and cook, stirring, until very fragrant and the ginger starts to turn golden and sticks to the bottom of the pot, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the fenugreek leaves, garam masala, chili powder and paprika and cook, stirring occasionally, until very fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, breaking them up into pieces with a spoon, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has reduced by half and the tomatoes are very tender, about 30 minutes.
- Let the hot sauce cool for about 5 minutes or so, then transfer it to a blender filling no more than halfway. (If your blender is small, you may need to work in batches.) Remove the center cap from the lid and place it on the blender. Cover the lid with a kitchen towel to catch splatters, and pulse until smooth. Add 1/4 cup heavy cream and puree until creamy. Pour into a clean pot and bring to a simmer. Season with salt.
- Meanwhile, position a rack directly under the broiler and preheat to high. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and set a wire rack inside.
- Arrange the chicken in a single layer on the rack. Broil until the chicken starts to brown in spots, 3 to 6 minutes per side (it will not be cooked through). Remove from the broiler. When cool enough to handle, cut the chicken into 1-inch pieces. Add the chicken to the simmering sauce, cover and cook until the chicken is cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Top the chicken and sauce with cilantro. Serve with rice and naan.

Steps:
- Prepare all ingredients for curry paste.
- Heat fry pan and add all ingredients and heat for 4-5 minutes.
- scrape ingredients into blender and blend until a smooth paste.
- Scrape out of blender and put into a small (preferably glass) bowl (glass to prevent staining!).
- Clean out your blender.
- Curry powder will stain.
- Assemble your blender again, as you will be using it again in a few minutes!
- Clean chicken and cut into small pieces, approximately 1 inch pieces.
- In your blender add garlic, ginger, tomato and yogurt and blend until all is nice and smooth.
- Keep lid on blender and set aside for later.
- Measure oil into a nice sized pan (one which has a lid) and heat on medium heat.
- Add onion and fry for 2-3 minutes (will begin to turn clear).
- Add the yogurt-tomato mixture from your blender and stir constantly for one minute.
- Add the curry paste and stir constantly for another minute or so.
- Then add cubed chicken to the pan and completely mix.
- Add heavy cream at this time and stir constantly until mixture starts to bubble.
- Add salt and pepper (more or less; whatever you desire), and cover.
- reduce heat to low-med heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
- It would be a good idea to start cooking your rice (according to package directions, so it is done at the same time as your chicken tikka!) After 20 mins, check to see if chicken is completely cooked!
- Serve over rice!
- Be sure to use the gravy as well!
- (warning. if you use too much gravy, you can really kill the flavor of this dish. use just enough to coat the rice).
- ENJOY!

Steps:
- Combine grated garlic and ginger with 1 tablespoon of olive oil to make a Ginger-Garlic Paste .
- In a large bowl, mix together yogurt, 3 tablespoons of Ginger-Garlic Paste, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/2 pepper. Cut any remaining fat from the chicken and toss to coat. Marinate about an hour, or in the refrigerator up to overnight.
- Place a large skillet over medium heat and add 2 teaspoons of olive oil and butter. When the butter has melted, add the remaining Ginger-Garlic Paste and serrano peppers. Saute until lightly browned around the edges. Add the tomato paste and cook until the tomato has darkened in color, about 3 minutes. Add the garam masala and the paprika and saute for about 1 minute to draw out their flavors.
- Add the tomatoes and remaining salt and stir into the mixture in the skillet. Cook for about 2 minutes, then add 1 cup of water. Bring to a boil, turn down to a simmer, and cook until thickened, about 20 minutes.
- Heat your gas grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly brush the grill with oil. Place the chicken on the grill, shaking off some of the excess marinade. Cook until it's charred, about 2 minutes on each side. (Don't worry that the chicken will still be a little uncooked, it finishes cooking in the sauce).
- Use an immersion blender and process sauce until smooth. Bring back up to a boil. Add the chicken and fenugreek leaves (use a grinder and pulse for a few seconds before adding). Take the heat down to a simmer and cook for about 10 minutes. Add half-and-half and stir through.
- Garnish with minced fresh cilantro, and serve over basmati rice with naan bread.

SILKEN CHICKEN 'TIKKA MASALA'
Chicken Tikka Masala is on the menu on every single Indian restaurant in the UK and is undoubtedly one of the most popular dishes. Although not strictly an authentic Indian dish (developed by Indian restauranteurs in the UK), it's closest relative is probably something like this. Please don't be put off by the seemingly endless list of ingredients and instructions..it's really very simple and well worth it...a real favourite in my house! The kebabs are also great eaten without the sauce. Timings do not include marinating time.
