This is wonderful - fragrant with spice and aromatics, tangy and bright from the the tomato base and rich with cream. Hits all the right spots!
I broke open and used 3 arbol chilies and found it to be the perfect spice level. Also I did not add the husks of the cardamom to the pot since they don't break down.
Served with basmati rice and cucumber raita.

An explosion of fabulous flavor! This dish has a lot of very rich (cream filled) sauce with chunks of chicken that marinaded in a spiced yogurt and broiled.
The chicken could easily be eaten alone, the flavor of the spiced yogurt (before it touches the chicken) might transform your idea of delicious yogurt, and with the sauce its pretty close to heaven!
Note we used only 1C cream, not 2, and used 1% milk for the other half.

Succulent tidbits of chicken bathed in a rich, fragrant sauce. The flavours of all of the spices and aromatics that went into the dish were beautifully melded; it was spicy but not too hot and the chicken was flavourful and tender.
The dish took a little bit of time to make, but since the recipe indicated it could be made in advance and reheated, I made the sauce the night before and marinated the chicken in yogurt over night. It took only 30 minutes to complete the dish the next day.
I served it with spicy spinach, cilantro-yogurt sauce and naan as part of an Indian inspired meal, a first for me.
