In this mild Northern Indian dish, chicken is simmered in a creamy fragrant sauce with onion, garlic, ginger and cashews. Serve over basmati or sticky rice. Add more chili or cayenne for more heat.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup cashew halves
- ¼ cup boiling water
- 3 cloves garlic, peeled
- 1 (1/2 inch) piece fresh ginger root, peeled and chopped
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 bay leaves, crumbled
- 1 large onion, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon garam masala
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 3 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves – diced
- ¼ cup tomato sauce
- 1 cup chicken broth
- ½ cup heavy cream
- ½ cup plain yogurt
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch, mixed with equal parts water
Directions
Step 1
Place cashews in a small bowl, and pour the boiling water over nuts. Set aside for 15 to 20 minutes. Place garlic and ginger in food processor and blend until smooth; set aside.
Step 2
Heat oil in wok over medium heat. Cook the bay leaves in hot oil for 30 seconds. Stir in onion, and cook until soft, about 3 to 5 minutes. Mix in garlic/ginger paste, and season with coriander, garam masala, cumin, turmeric, and chili powder. Stir in chicken, and cook for about 5 minutes. Pour in tomato sauce and chicken broth. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 3
Meanwhile, place the cashews, along with the water in which they were soaked, and the cream and yogurt into food processor. Process until smooth.
Step 4
Stir the cashew mixture into the chicken and onions. Simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the cornstarch mixture, and continue cooking for 1 to 2 minutes.
