We used a frozen vegetable medley product that can be microwaved in the unopened bag. Cooked a little less than halfway, the vegetables stay crisp, and it cuts down the final prep time. We also have a recipe for a vegan version of this dish.


Serve over rice with chopped cilantro and pita, tortilla, or naan bread. 

Ingredients 

4 Tbsp. Tikka Masala 

6 Tbsp. olive oil, divided 

1 ¼ cups water, divided 

3 ½ Tbsp. Tomato Powder (or 8 oz. prepared tomato sauce) 

1 ½ tsp. Honey 

1 lb. boneless chicken, cut into cubes 

12 oz. bag frozen vegetables 

1 Tbsp. lemon juice 

1 ½ tsp. sea salt 

½ cup plain yogurt 

½ cup half and half (You can substitute with 1/4 cup of full fat milk & 1/4 cup of lite cooking cream) 

Cilantro, to garnish

Instruction 

1

Mix Tikka Masala, 4 Tbsp. oil and 4 Tbsp. water into a smooth paste, and set aside. 

2

Mix tomato powder and honey powder with 1 cup (8 oz.) water to make a smooth sauce, and set aside. 

3

In a large skillet, heat 2 Tbsp. oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until lightly browned. Meanwhile, cook vegetables in microwave for 2 to 2 ½ min. Add vegetables to chicken and stir in tikka paste. 

4
