Instructions
Creating Gordon Ramsay Chicken Tikka Masala can be straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, combine yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, ginger, garam masala, ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric, chili powder, and salt. Add the chicken pieces and mix well. Cover and let marinate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for enhanced flavor.
2. Cook the Chicken: Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off. Cook the chicken in batches until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per batch. Remove chicken and set aside.
3. Prepare the Sauce: In the same skillet, add crushed tomatoes and bring to a simmer. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4. Add Cream: Lower the heat and stir in the heavy cream. Cook for another 5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
5. Combine: Add the cooked chicken back into the skillet, stirring to coat the chicken with the sauce. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
6. Garnish: Remove from heat and garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
7. Taste and Adjust: Before serving, taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning as needed.
8. Serve: Serve hot with basmati rice or warm naan.
By following these steps, you will create an amazing Gordon Ramsay Chicken Tikka Masala that is sure to impress your family and friends.
