There are so many delicious ways to cook a Chicken curry in Indian cuisine beyond Chicken Tikka masala and Butter chicken. The Chicken Korma or Kurma is one such recipe. This is a delicious recipe that tastes like one you would get at an Indian restaurant, but with much healthier ingredients. Traditionally the gravy is made using whole cashews but I used Georgia Grinders cashew butter, which made the recipe so much easier to make and it tasted so incredibly rich. This recipe is Whole30 / Paleo compatible.
