Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 tablespoon olive oil
¼ red onion, chopped
1 tablespoon butter
1 lemon, sliced into rounds
1 (1 inch) piece fresh ginger, grated
2 teaspoons garam masala
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 cup half-and-half
¼ cup plain yogurt
3 ½ tablespoons tomato paste
1 tablespoon olive oil
6 ounces paneer, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 (16 ounce) can chickpeas, drained
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir red onion in the hot oil until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add butter, lemon, ginger, garam masala, chili powder, and cumin; stir to coat, about 1 minute.
  • Stir half-and-half, yogurt, and tomato paste into onion mixture and cook until well mixed and smooth, about 5 minutes.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a separate skillet over low heat. Pan-fry paneer in the hot oil until slightly brown, about 5 minutes per side. Mix cooked paneer and chickpeas into the spiced cream sauce. Simmer until heated through, about 10 minutes.
