Method
0 of 7 done- In a bowl, mix Greek yoghurt, lemon juice, garam masala, paprika, ground cumin, ground coriander, and turmeric powder. Add the chicken breast pieces and marinate for at least 30 minutes, preferably longer if time allows.
- Preheat your oven to 200┬░C. Place the marinated chicken pieces on a baking tray and cook for 20-25 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and has a nice char.
- While the chicken is cooking, heat butter in a pan over medium heat. Add ginger paste and garlic paste and sauté until fragrant.
- Stir in the tomato purée and cook for 5 minutes until it thickens slightly. Lower the heat and add double cream, stirring continuously to combine. Allow the sauce to simmer for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, grate the cauliflower using a food processor or box grater to make 'rice'. Steam the cauliflower rice for 5 minutes until tender but not mushy.
- Once the chicken is done, add it to the sauce, making sure to coat all pieces well. Simmer for another 10 minutes.
- Serve the Chicken Tikka Masala on a bed of cauliflower rice using fresh coriander for garnish.
