    This was an excellent dish, spicy but not overwhelming.It's creamy and rich with well developed flavors. I will make this again often.

    Incredible recipe! Flavor was spot-on with the ingredients & amounts Aarti recommends. I only used about 1/4c of heavy cream to cut back on the fat -- still plenty of creaminesss. I can not think of anything I would do differently next time I make this, which says a lot! Definitely a staple to add to our collection.

    I made this for diner last night, me and my girlfriend loved it! I had to make a few modifications, I only had enough fresh ginger for the first step, so I had to replace the rest with ground ginger. Also I decided to skip grilling the chicken and toss the chicken with the marinade to cook in the curry sauce.

    I just cooked this one today, it was a hit but here are couple notes I think everyone needs to know, the garlic ginger paste: I followed the recipe of 1 cup of garlic and 1 cup of ginger and canola oil, I used the blender to make the paste but I think I should've added more garlic than ginger since the whole chicken masala turned out more gingery than garlicky, it was definitely awesome dish to make, taste, easy to make, I used the slow cooker after mixing the chicken and the sauce and let it simmer for around 3-4 hours on low heat in crockpot. will do it again with some tweaks, by the way, I used 2 1/2 Serrano pepper and it was perfectly spicy, if you want it less spicy use less than that.

    This is yummy! The sauce has deep, rich flavors, and the chicken was super tender and delicious. I had never used garam masala before, and to be honest, when I smelled it, I almost changed my mind about making this dish. But the reviews kept me going. The combination of all of the spices and the garlic and ginger make for a beautiful combination of flavors. I doubled the amount of chicken, and it was just right. I also added a little extra garam masala, which was suggested by another review, and I'm glad I did. I forgot to add the cream and only realized the mistake after we sat down to eat. Honestly, it was fantastic without it, and probably a little less fattening. Great flavors. I will absolutely be making this again.

    I've made this recipe several times now and really enjoy it! It's my husband's favorite curry. To save time (and stovetop space, I usually broil the chicken for a few minutes per side rather than grill it.

    Delicious dish! I cooked the chicken in the pan and removed it prior to cooking the sauce. We enjoy spicy dishes, so I used 4 serranos with seeds. The heat was perfect!

    This was sooo good. I did not add the cream b/c I didn't want to dilute the flavor.

    I made this using one can of diced tomatoes and two cans of tomato sauce. The plan was to use just one can of sauce, but I accidentally opened two cans...oops. I also subbed two jalapenos, one with seeds, one without. I doubled the spices and added 1 T. of brown sugar, to accommodate the extra tomato sauce. I also added a cup of red kidney beans. I accidentally added 1 c. instead of 1/2 c. of cream, but I thought it would be okay since I had SO MUCH SAUCE. I tasted the sauce as I went along, and it was delicious before I added the cream. The cream sent it over the edge. It was way too rich for me and I couldn't eat it. Sad because I had SO MUCH SAUCE lol. Next time I'll do the same thing--maybe add extra kidney beans and/or lentils--but omit the cream altogether. It seriously tasted amazing without it. I would still double the spices because, really, what's not to love about garam masala? Perfect savory/sweet elements going on.
