Ingredients
  • 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into bite-size pieces
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon cumin seed
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
  • 1 (8 ounce) can peeled, chopped tomatoes
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon garam masala
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 pinch ground coriander
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 3 tablespoons plain yogurt
  • 2 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into 1 inch cubes
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 1 (5.5 ounce) can tomato juice

Instructions
1
Combine the chicken pieces in a large bowl and sprinkle with lemon juice, salt, and pepper to evenly distribute.
2
Transfer the bowl contents to a separate area and set aside momentarily.
3
Heat oil in a substantial, heavy saucepan over medium heat. Introduce cumin seed into the saucepan and cook for 1 minute, until it becomes lightly toasted. Combine onion, garlic, and ginger in the saucepan and cook until the onion is tender.
4
Add tomatoes to the saucepan and season with chili powder, turmeric, garam masala, ground cumin, coriander, and paprika. Continue to cook and stir the mixture for 2 minutes.
5
Blend yogurt into the saucepan until it is fully incorporated. Add the chicken pieces and potatoes to the saucepan, then mix in water and tomato juice.
6
Lower the heat to medium-low and cover the saucepan. Allow it to simmer for approximately 40 minutes.
7
Adjust the seasonings in the saucepan as needed and garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
