Ingredients
1 pre-cooked rotisserie chicken, shredded
1 large onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp grated ginger
1 tbsp cumin seeds
1 tbsp ground coriander
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp garam masala
2 cups plain yogurt
1 cup cashews, blended with 2 tbsp water
1 cup milk or coconut milk
1 tbsp oil
1/4 cup heavy cream or coconut cream
Salt to taste
Fresh cilantro for garnish
Instructions
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and cook until fragrant.
Add chopped onion, garlic, and ginger; sauté until softened (4-5 minutes).
Stir in ground coriander, turmeric, and garam masala; cook for 1 minute.
Pour in yogurt and blended cashews; whisk until smooth. Simmer for 5 minutes.
Add shredded chicken and milk; cook until heated through (5-7 minutes).
Stir in heavy cream and adjust salt to taste. Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
Notes
Use full-fat yogurt for the creamiest result.
For a non-dairy version, substitute with coconut milk and cream.
Stores refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for 3 months. Reheat gently to avoid curdling.
