The chicken is great to make on its own for a weeknight meal, but when paired with the masala sauce it's to die for.
Serve with basmati rice or naan (or, let’s be honest, both).**
I knew I wanted a relatively smooth sauce vs. chunky (with onions and hand-crushed whole tomatoes), so I used my immersion blender to puree the sauce at a certain point mid-process. If you don’t mind a chunky sauce then ignore that step, or if you don’t have one but want a smoother sauce then I recommend either using a food processor to very finely mince the onions initially and the whole peeled tomatoes (or subbing for tomato puree) before they’re added to the pot.
*The almond flour adds a flavor as well as some body to the sauce, but it's not critical if you don't want have it on hand.
**Optional garnishes/add-ons, not necessarily traditional but lovely - a squeeze of lemon juice, a handful of chopped cilantro.
