This could quite well already be an already existing curry dish with a proper name but when I make curries, I sometimes like to simply use my favourite ingredients in order to achieve my favourite taste. In this case we have Chicken, Onions, Red Peppers and a Tandoori masala to create a hot, dry and slightly sweet curry.
Strictly speaking the 'Tandoori' in the name refers to to the masala used and not the method of cooking - if anyone wants to try this recipe and suggest a more apt and original name, please do so!
Prepare the chicken, onion, pepper, chilli and garlic by chopping them all into 'rustic' size chunks - not worrying too much about proportion. I like to slice garlic roughly into little discs, Slic a chicken breast into 6-7 pieces, a pepper into 8-10 pieces and half an onion into 8-10 pieces.
Melt the butter into a very hot frying pan and add the pepper, chilli and onions and fry for 3-4 minutes.
Add the chicken pieces and continue to fry on a high heat until the chicken is cooked through. try not to stir too much and allow the meat and vegetables to brown.
Add the garam masala, tandoori masala and garlic and, again, continue to fry for another 3-4 minutes. You may need to turn the heat down at this point and stir a little more frequently to stop the dry mixture burning.
Now add the half can of chopped tomatoes and stir until it is fully incorporated and lifts any residue from the bottom of the pan.
Take off the heat and allow to cool slightly before stirring in the yoghurt and coriander before serving.
