- ½ garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon ground coriander
- 1 ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon ground cardamom
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 ½ teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon cayenne
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 4 tablespoon (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
- ½ cup white onion, diced small
- 1 ½ cup tomato puree
- 1 cup heavy cream

Directions
- Butterfly each chicken breast into two equal pieces by cutting through them horizontally.
- Whisk together the yogurt, 1 tbsp peanut oil, lime juice, and garlic. Add chicken to this marinade and make sure completely coated. Let marinate for at least one hour.
- Oil and heat skillet to medium high heat until hot and add 1/2 tbsp of peanut oil. Working in batches, cook the chicken breasts, turning them a few times and lowering the heat if the chicken chars too quickly, until browned well on both sides and cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes total. Let chicken cool then slice thinly.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the coriander, cumin, cardamom, nutmeg, paprika, cayenne, and ginger. In a sauté pan over medium high heat, melt the butter and caramelize onions to a light brown color.
- Reduce the heat to medium then stir in the spice mixture. Add the tomato purée, water, heavy cream, and salt, and bring the sauce to a boil. Reduce the heat to a gentle simmer and allow sauce to thicken slightly, about 10 minutes.
- Combine white cabbage, red cabbage, cilantro, and lime juice to make slaw.
- Assemble sliders with chicken on bottom bun, topped with slaw and tikka sauce. Serve with extra tikka masala sauce on the side.
