I was never a fan of Chicken Tikka Masala but I LOVE this version with Chickpeas. This is a must try.

Ingredients:
2 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1 red onion, finely diced
3 garlic cloves, finely minced
Pinch of sea salt

Add chickpeas and tomatoes in their juice and bring to a boil. Then, reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Stir in the coconut milk, tomato paste, and the coconut oil. Return to a simmer for 5 minutes.
