Ingredients:

1 Tablespoon Garam Masala
1 Tablespoon Turmeric
1 Tablespoon Black Pepper
1 Tablespoon Salt

20 grams light butter
3 crushed garlic cloves
15 grams fresh ginger

Recipe:
- Marinate the chicken: Start by marinating the chicken. In a large glass bowl, combine the diced chicken breast with garam masala, turmeric, paprika, black pepper, and salt. Toss to coat with the marinade.

Cook the chicken: Heat 2 tablespoon of cooking oil in a large pan over
medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken pieces to the pan in a single layer, and cook to brown on all sides. Transfer the browned chicken to a plate. - To make the sauce: Add 20 grams of light butter to the pan and reduce to medium heat. Add 1/2 sliced onion, garlic, and garam masala, and stir to combine. Blend 400 grams of tomatoes in a blender. Cook the mixture for 45 seconds, then add the tomato sauce. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add chicken to sauce: Return the browned chicken pieces to the pan, along with any accumulated juices, and use a wooden spoon to settle the chicken into the sauce. Simmer for 3-5 minutes over medium-low heat, until the chicken is tender and cooked through.
- Garnish and serve: Season to taste with salt and pepper if necessary. Garnish with coriander and serve hot.
