Easy Chicken Tikka Masala image

This was found on allrecipes.com. The original recipe called for a whopping 7 teaspoons of salt! We cut that considerably when we made it, and it was delicious, but still very salty. This version is salted to taste. We served this with basmati rice and it was yummy!

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but it was still very good. The chicken was tender and the sauce was flavorful. I would recommend using less chili powder if you don't like spicy food.
