3
Add Spices
Add cumin seeds, turmeric powder, red chili powder, garam masala, and salt. Stir for a minute until fragrant.

Combine Chicken
Add the marinated chicken to the pan and cook for about 5-7 minutes until the chicken is no longer pink.

Finish with Tomatoes
Pour in the pureed tomatoes and cook for another 10-15 minutes on low heat until the chicken is tender and the sauce thickens.

Sprinkle chopped cilantro on top before serving.
