We LOVE Indian food at our house.  I've been making a lightened up version of a recipe I found on You Tube for Butter Chicken, and its AMAZING!  It flavorful and comforting and I could eat it every week.  Here are the details:

Ingredients:

• 2 packages chicken thighs or breasts, diced
• 1/8 c olive oil
• 6 garlic cloves
• 1 can tomato paste
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp coriander
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp tumeric
• 1 tbsp paprika
• 2 tsp garam masala
• 3/4 c water
• 1 1/2 cups milk ( I use whole milk)

Directions:

• Heat olive oil in large saucepan over medium to low heat.  Then add the garlic and sauté until lightly golden, be careful not to let it stick and burn.
• Turn the heat down to low and add one can of tomato paste.  Cook the tomato paste and garlic for 1-2 minutes.
• Next add of all the spices and cook until fragrant, roughly 2-3 minutes.
• Add 3/4 c water and the diced chicken.
• Mix thoroughly and cook on low/medium heat for 10-15 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.
• Add the 1 1/2 cups of milk, stir, and you're done!

We eat this with white rice, or you could use Jasmine or Basmati, or even quinoa.  I also always serve this with garlic naan bread.

Happy Cooking friends!
