Garam Masala
Curry Powder
1 clove of Garlic
1 cube of real butter
1 can of stewed tomatoes
3/4 cup of heavy cream
1 tsp of salt to taste
Cayenne Pepper to taste



Directions
1. Bring water to a boil in stockpot
1a. Start your rice.
2. Peel potatoes and cut into small sections
3. Add potatoes to boiling water and cook for about 15 minutes on high or until soft, but not mushy. Drain.
4. Dice one onion into small pieces and set aside.
5. Prepare your chicken: Melt half a stick of the butter and add 2 tablespoons of curry powder and 1 tablespoon of Garam Masala to the butter and pour mixture over the chicken. Let sit in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes. Then remove and cut into small pieces.
6. Turn your skillet on low and add the remaining half stick of butter. Add one clove of garlicpressed or diced to the butter.
7. Add your diced chicken to the butter and garlic mixture and cook slowly on 200 medium-low if on a stove so as not to sear or char the chicken.
8. Add 2 more tablespoons of curry powder and 1 more tablespoon of Garam Masala to the mix. this can really be done to taste Don't be afraid of the curry powder. That isn't the hot part. But, add cayenne pepper, but be careful if this is your first time with spice, it can get hot very fast if you shake out too much!
9. Add your diced onions to the mix when the chicken is close to done. You don't want the onions soggy, you want them to have a crisp kick.
10. Add the heavy cream. This gives you a nice curry sauce base.
11. Add one can of sliced stewed tomatoes and your salt. Limit your addition of the juice from the can. Simmer for about 5 minutes stirring often.
12. Lastly, add your cooked potatoes to the mix and stir it all up.
13. Voila! Put your Chicken Makhani over your rice.

note: I highly suggest to serve this dish with fresh flatbread or Naan if you can find it in your area.
