Original yield: 4 servings

INGREDIENTS

* 1 cup butter, divided

* 1 onion, minced

* 1 tablespoon minced garlic

* 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce

* 3 cups heavy cream

* 2 teaspoons salt

* 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

* 1 teaspoon garam masala

*

* 1 1/2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized chunks

* 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

* 2 tablespoons tandoori masala


DIRECTIONS

* Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

* Melt a few tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in onion and garlic, and cook slowly until the onion caramelizes to a dark brown, about 15 minutes.

* Meanwhile melt the remaining butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat along with the tomato sauce, heavy cream, salt, cayenne pepper, and garam masala. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to medium-low; cover, and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Then stir in caramelized onions.

* While the sauce is simmering, toss cubed chicken breast with vegetable oil until coated, then season with tandoori masala and spread out onto a baking sheet.

* Bake chicken in preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 12 minutes. Once done, add the chicken to the sauce and simmer for 5 minutes before serving.
