'chicken' Tikka Masala - Vegan Style image

My all time favorite Indian dish - Chicken Tikka Masala. Since my vegan conversion, this is one meal I surely thought, I'd never have again. Thanks to the folks at Gardein, their 'chicken scallopini' makes this carnivorous dish, 100% vegan friendly!

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I was able to tone it down by using less chili powder.
