Prawn Tikka Masala is bursting with flavor and is quick and easy to make.
Ingredients
- 25-30 jumbo prawns peeled and deveined
- 1 medium lime juiced
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 1 piece ginger peeled and finely grated
- 1 tablespoon butter preferably unsalted
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 2 tsps cumin seeds
- 2 tsps ground turmeric
- 2 tsps garam masala
- 1 large onion diced
- 1 14- oz. crushed tomatoes can
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- Cooked basmati rice
- Fresh cilantro roughly chopped, for serving, to taste
- sea salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine prawns, lime juice, chili powder, garlic, and ginger. Season to taste with salt and pepper and allow to marinate for 15-20 minutes.
- While the prawns are marinating, melt the butter in a large skillet. Add the prawns and cook, stirring occasionally, just until the prawns begin to turn opaque and soften up slightly, 4-5 minutes. Watch carefully as prawns can overcook very quickly. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
- In the same skillet, heat the coconut oil over medium heat. Add in the cumin seeds, turmeric, and garam masala. Cook until the spices become fragrant, approximately 1-2 minutes.
- Add the onions to the spice mixture and cook until the onions develop a bit of color, 4-5 minutes.
- Pour in the crushed tomatoes and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens slightly, 4-5 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to low. Add in the yogurt and heavy cream. Cook gently for 4-5 minutes, then add in the prawns and any accumulated juices and continue cooking just until the prawns are heated through.
- Serve over cooked basmati rice and garnish with fresh cilantro. Enjoy!
