Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Chicken breast, boneless and skinless
- 100 grams Raw cashews
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 2 medium Tomatoes, pureed
- 4 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Ginger, minced
- 1 cup Coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Garam masala
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
- 0.5 cup Water
Instructions
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
Soak the raw cashews in warm water for 10 minutes. Drain and blend the cashews into a smooth paste using a few tablespoons of water. Set aside.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and let them sizzle for 30 seconds until aromatic.
Add the chopped onion to the pan and sauté until golden brown, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and ginger, and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the tomato puree and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oil begins to separate from the mixture.
Mix in the coriander powder, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Cook for 1 minute.
Add the chicken pieces to the pan and sauté for 5 minutes until they are no longer pink on the outside.
Pour in the blended cashew paste and stir to coat the chicken evenly.
Add the coconut milk and water, and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Cover the pan and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
Sprinkle in the garam masala and stir well.
Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve hot with steamed rice or naan.
