Chicken Korma with Basmati Rice

This flavorful chicken korma is made with tender chicken pieces cooked in a creamy and aromatic sauce, served with fragrant basmati rice.

Ingredients - Serves 4

In a blender, combine the chopped onion, minced garlic, grated ginger, soaked cashews, yogurt, garam masala, turmeric, cumin, coriander, cayenne pepper, and salt. Blend until smooth to make a paste.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until browned on all sides. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the onion paste and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the coconut milk and bring to a simmer. Return the chicken to the pan and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
Meanwhile, rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a separate pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add the rinsed rice and cook according to package instructions.
Serve the chicken korma over the cooked basmati rice. Garnish with fresh cilantro.
