Chicken Tikka Masala, from Cook's Illustrated

This Chicken Tikka Masala is a moderately spicy dish, that sounds "Indian" but really originated in the U.K. Served over rice, this is a wonderful and different dish.

This dish is best when prepared with whole-milk yogurt, but low-fat yogurt can be substituted.

For a spicier dish, do not remove the ribs and seeds from the chile. If you prefer, substitute 2 teaspoons ground coriander, 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom, 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper for the garam masala. The sauce can be made ahead, refrigerated for up to 4 days in an airtight container, and gently reheated before adding the hot chicken.

Serve with basmati rice.
