Cook the basmati rice first. Remove from heat, fluff and cover when finished to keep warm.
Add the oil and the chopped onions to a skillet and sauté, stirring often, until tender and golden brown. Add the chopped garlic and continue to cook for another minute or two until the garlic is tender; stirring often.
Stir in the tomatoes, add the spices and the salt and pepper, stir until blended and simmer for 20 minutes.
Add the cooked chicken to the pan and continue simmering on low heat for another 10 minutes.
Add the yogurt or sour cream to the pan and mix thoroughly until warmed. Adjust amount to your preference.
Taste and adjust seasonings; squeeze in one or two squeezes of lemon juice to brighten the flavors and you're done!
Turn off the heat and cover. Allow to sit so the flavors meld a bit. Before serving, gently reheat if necessary and serve over basmati rice.
