[ Edited ]

I use the McCormick brand sold at the grocery store.  This recipe was given to me by a co-worker.  I have made it and find it tasty over rice:

 

1 onion, chopped

1 tbsp chopped ginger

2 tsp minced garlic

1 tbsp olive oil

2 tsp garam masala

1 tsp chili powder

1 tsp cardamom

1/2 tsp coriander

6-oz can tomato paste

2 cups chicken broth

1/2 cup half-and-half

1 1/2 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 3/4" pieces

1/2 tsp pepper

1 tsp salt

3 tbsp butter

 

Saute onion and ginger in olive oil until onions are clear.  Stir in garlic, garam masala, chili powder, cardamom, and coriander for a minute. 

Puree mixture in blender with tomato paste and chicken broth until smooth.  Pour back into skillet and stir in half-and-half. 

Bring to simmer and stir in chicken, salt, and pepper.  Simmer until chicken is cooked and sauce is slightly thickened.

Stir butter into sauce until melted.

It calls for 3tsp. gram masala.  What is that and where do I find it in the store?

coriander, black pepper, cumin, cardamom. and cinnamon.

If you have a Sprouts grocery store in your area, they sell spices in bulk. Buy as little or as much as you want and they are usually a great deal! 

 

Would you please share your recipe?
