Adapted by Kyle Libramonte
Prep Time: 15 m. • Marinade Time: 20 m. • Cook Time: 30 m.
Serves: 3-4
Chicken Ingredients:
- ¾ lb Boneless Chicken Breast, cut into bite size pieces
- 1 Tbsp Ginger Paste
- 1 Tbsp Garlic paste
- 1 Tbsp Red Chili Powder
- 1 Tbsp Neutral Oil
- Salt to taste
Gravy Ingredients:
- 1 lb Tomatoes, roughly chopped
- 1 Medium Red Onion, roughly chopped
- 1 Tbsp Garlic paste
- ¼ cup Cashews, (omit if nut allergies are a concern)
- 1 tsp Kasoori Methi
- 1/2 tsp Garam Masala
- 4 Tbsp Sugar
- 2 Tbsp Kashmiri Chili Powder
- 5 Tbsp Butter
- 3 Tbsp Cream
- 2 Tbsp Malt Vinegar
- 1 ½ Tbsp White Vinegar
- Salt to taste
Instructions:
- Combine the ginger paste, garlic paste, and red chili powder with the chicken breast. Let marinate for 20 minutes.
- Preheat your Claypot Oven to Sear/Sauté High about 5–10 minutes before the chicken is ready.
- Add oil and sear the chicken on all sides. Set aside.
- Add a spoonful of butter to the Claypot and cook down the onions until softened, scraping up any browned bits from the chicken.
- Once softened, stir in the tomatoes and cashews.
- Add garlic paste, salt, malt vinegar, sugar, garam masala, and chili powder. Mix well.
- If there isn’t enough liquid from the vegetables, add about ½ cup of water—just enough to stir everything together smoothly.
- Let simmer for 15–20 minutes until the vegetables are softened.
- Turn off your Claypot Oven, transfer the gravy mix to a mixing bowl, and blend with an immersion blender until smooth. Strain the mixture back into the Claypot.
- Add butter, cream, seared chicken, and kasoori methi. Simmer for 5–7 minutes.
- Garnish with a swirl of cream and a pinch of kasoori methi. Enjoy!
