I miss Indian food. I would go with my team once in a while, but I haven't been back to the office since March. My aunt has been craving some too so we took a stab at it. We also discovered that Costco has a simmering sauce that's pretty good too, so if you don't want to do it from scratch I highly recommend that option!
Ingredients:
2 lbs Chicken Breast, chopped
4 cloves Garlic
2 Fresno Chili Peppers, seeded
1/4 cup Ginger, sliced
1/4 cup Tomato Paste
1/4 cup Vegetable Oil
2 tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
1 tbsp Madras Curry Powder
1 tbsp Paprika
1 Onion, chopped
Salt and Pepper to taste
Cilantro, garnish
Instructions:
In a food process, puree the garlic, chilis, ginger, tomato paste, 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, the Worcestershire sauce, curry powder and paprika until a paste forms, add a couple tbsp of water if needed.
Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and lightly browned, about 6 minutes. Add the garlic-spice paste and cook, stirring constantly, until it darkens in color, about 1 minute.
Add 2 cups water and 1 teaspoon salt to the skillet. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low; cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes.
In a separate skillet with a little olive oil, brown your chicken and then add it to your simmer sauce. Stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly, about 10 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper and thin with water if needed.
Serve with rice and naan and top with cilantro.
