Recipe
1. Preheat the oven to 400 degree Fahrenheit and add the contents of bag 3 into a deep baking dish. Place the baking dish in the oven and cook the contents for 30 minutes at 400 degree Fahrenheit.
2. When the chicken is being cooked in the oven, keep a heavy bottomed pan on the stove. Add 4 tablespoons oil (olive oil or canola oil) into the pan. Add the contents of bag 1, bag 2 and 1/2 cup water into the pan.
3. Mix the contents well and close the pan with a lid. Cook in medium heat until the sauce thickens and oil starts to ooze around the edges of the pan. This step takes about 7 to 10 minutes. Stir occasionally to avoid burning.
4. Once the sauce becomes thick switch off the stove, the masala is ready.
5. After the chicken is cooked, remove the deep baking dish from the oven. Add the cooked chicken and veggies into the pan which contains the masala. Switch on the stove and cook the contents in the pan for 2 minutes in medium heat. Keep stirring to mix the contents well. (Optional ingredients -If you like a sweet tomatoey taste in your chicken tikka masala, add a pinch of sugar and 1 tablespoon of tomato ketchup at this stage.)
6. After 2 minutes add the contents of bag 4 into the pan and cook in medium heat for 2 minutes. Keep stirring to mix the contents well. Switch off the heat. Taste the Chicken tikka masala and add salt if needed. Transfer the chicken tikka masala into a serving dish.
