Thank goodness it’s Friday! I don’t know about you but I really find these dark mornings and evenings a struggle at this time of year. At least tonight I know we can have a cosy night in with this healthy chicken tikka Masala made using @timsdairyyogurt and a few glasses of wine.
Serves 4-6
INGREDIENTS
1 kg skinless boneless chicken thighs - cut into 3
1 can coconut milk
1 tin tomatoes
3 tablespoons Tims Dairy Greek Yogurt
2 onions finely chopped
4 cloves garlic crushed
1 red chilli finely chopped
1 tablespoon grated ginger
1 tablespoon tomatoes purée
1 tablespoon honey
Spices
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
2 teaspoons cumin
2 teaspoons ground coriander
1 teaspoon medium curry powder
2 teaspoons garam masala
Pistachio nuts to serve (optional)
METHOD
Start by sautéing the onions until soft and golden. Add the garlic and ginger for a few minutes.
Coat the chicken in the spices and add to the pan stirring to thoroughly disperse the spices. Cook for 5 minutes. Add the coconut milk, tomato purée and tomatoes, stir and bring to a gentle simmer. Simmer for 1 1/2 hours. Add the yogurt and warm through. Sprinkle with pistachios. Serve with, basmati rice.
