Directions how to prepare the Chicken Tikka Masala recipe:
2. Preparing the chicken breast (or boneless chicken legs).Put half the amount of sunflower oil in a high pan and fry the chicken breast cubes until they start to get a little crust and a darker color.
3. In another pan, heat the onion and the pepper, after having finely chopped them before.
4. After sauteing the onion and pepper, place them in the high pan over the fried chicken breast.
5. To prepare the sauce, add the medium fried chicken and the cooking cream, and the tomato juice and leave on low heat for about 10 minutes to homogenize.
6. Add the grated ginger, minced garlic, and ground hot pepper together with the other ingredients: turmeric (curcuma), cumin, ground white pepper, curry, salt, sweet paprika, hot paprika, anise, cumin, and cloves so that the sauce penetrates with all the flavors. Also, for more flavor, add 2 teaspoons of Garam Masala. Leave for another 5 minutes for the flavors to penetrate and then turn off the heat.
7. How to eat the prepared chicken? The pieces of chicken breast with the Tikka Masala sauce are displayed on a plate next to the basmati or jasmine rice that I cooked before and it can be enjoyed, served.
That's all. Enjoy jour meal!

About Garam Masala Mix:
If we haven't bought it from the store, we can prepare the Garam Masala spice mix at home. To prepare the mixture we need the following spices:
-1 teaspoon of ground black or white pepper-1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon of ground cloves
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon (or 1/2 of a ground cinnamon stick)
- ½ teaspoon of ground coriander
- ½ teaspoon ground cardamom
-½ teaspoon ground nutmeg.
We then put the mixture in a jar with a lid in the pantry and use it for future chicken Tikka Masala dishes.
