6 servings
- •2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
- •2 teaspoons salt
- •0.5 cup cooking oil
- •1.5 cups chopped onion
- •1 tablespoon minced garlic
- •1.5 teaspoons minced fresh ginger root
- •1 tablespoon curry powder
- •1 teaspoon ground cumin
- •1 teaspoon ground turmeric
- •1 teaspoon ground coriander
- •1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- •1 tablespoon water
- •1 (15 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
- •1 cup plain yogurt
- •1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
- •1 teaspoon salt
- •0.5 cup water
- •1 teaspoon garam masala
- •1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
- •1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients.
- Sprinkle the chicken breasts with 2 teaspoons salt.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over high heat; partially cook the chicken in the hot oil in batches until completely browned on all sides. Transfer browned chicken breasts to a plate and set aside.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add onion, garlic, and ginger to the oil remaining in the skillet. Cook and stir until onion turns soft and translucent, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir curry powder, cumin, turmeric, coriander, cayenne, and 1 tablespoon of water into the onion mixture; allow to heat together for about 1 minute while stirring.
- Add tomatoes, yogurt, 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro, and 1 teaspoon salt to the mixture; stir to combine.
- Return chicken breast to the skillet along with any juices on the plate. Pour in 1/2 cup water and bring to a boil, turning the chicken to coat with the sauce. Sprinkle garam masala and 1 tablespoon cilantro over the chicken.
- Cover the skillet and simmer until chicken breasts are no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Drizzle with lemon juice to serve.
