1 teaspoon turmeric powder

1 teaspoon chili powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon salt

Istruzioni

In a bowl, mix together the yoghurt, curry powder, turmeric powder, chili powder, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

Add the chicken thighs to the bowl and toss to coat well with the marinade. Marinate for at least 30 minutes or overnight for best results.

Heat some oil in a pan and pan-fry the chicken until fully cooked, about 6-7 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside.

In the same pan, add the butter, onions, garlic, and ginger. Cook until the onions are soft and translucent.

Pour in the tomato pasta sauce, add the cooked chicken, and stir to combine. Pour in the heavy cream and stir again.

Toss in the cooked pasta and add some pasta water if needed to loosen the sauce. Cook for a few more minutes until heated through.

Serve the butter chicken pasta, topped with more heavy cream and garnished with chopped cilantro. Enjoy!
