Chicken in Yogurt and Garam Masala Sauce

I have made this many times but this specific recipe is from Aneeqs.

Ingredients:
1 tbsp tomato paste
0.75 cup plain yogurt
1.5 tsp garam masala
0.5 tsp cumin seeds
1 tsp salt
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp ginger powder
1.5 tsp chili powder
1.5lb chicken breast
2 medium onions sliced
2 tbsp ghee
1 inch cinnamon
4 green cardamoms
cilantro

Cut chicken in strips and marinate with tomato paste, yogurt, garam masala powder, cumin seeds, garlic, ginger and chili powder. Heat oil and fry sliced onions to make them brown and crispy. Remove onions, cool and crush. Reheat the oil and and add back the crushed fried onions. Add chicken to the onion fried oil and stir fry for a few minutes. Stir until cooked. If needed add little water.

Separately take some ghee and add cinnamon and cardamom to the ghee. Julienne green chilies and chop cilantro. Add the ghee, cilantro and the chilies to the chicken. Cover and let sit for sometime to let the aroma blend in.
