Tender chicken in a lovely rich smooth and aromatic sauce, what could be better. The only change I made to this recipe was to reduce the oil to 1 tsp without a problem. Used plum tomatoes which I had canned over the summer and dinner was ready in thirty minutes. Served over basmati rice with naan. Thank you Jane for sharing this quick easy and delicious recipe.
