When you need a fast and flavorful dinner, convenience items like jarred sauce can come in handy. And one item you’ll want to stock in your pantry: tikka masala sauce. Store-bought tikka masala sauce is the key to a quick curry, but this spicy, creamy tomato gravy is versatile. Here are five ways to use store-bought tikka masala sauce.

5 Ways to Use Tikka Masala Sauce

Tikka Masala Tian (pictured above)

Spread 1/2 cup sauce in a 9-inch pie dish. Shingle slices of 1 medium Japanese eggplant, 1 medium zucchini and 2 large Roma tomatoes on the sauce. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and spread 1/4 cup sauce on top. Sprinkle with fresh thyme and crushed red pepper. Cover with foil. Bake at 375°F for 20 minutes. Uncover and bake for 20 minutes. Serves 4.

Baked Potatoes with Tikka Masala Chickpea Chaat

Sauté 1 cup sliced yellow onion in 1 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet. Add two 15-oz. cans rinsed chickpeas and one 12-oz. jar sauce, and simmer for 20 minutes. Stir in 1/4 cup chopped cilantro. Spoon over 4 baked potatoes and garnish with Greek yogurt, diced red onion and more cilantro. Serves 4.

Tikka Masala-Glazed Salmon Kebabs

Cut 1 large onion, 1 large bell pepper and 1 large tomato into chunks and thread onto 4 skewers. Place on a baking sheet and brush with 1/4 cup sauce. Bake at 450°F for 20 minutes. Thread 11/4 lbs. cubed salmon onto 4 skewers. Add to the pan and brush with 1/4 cup sauce. Bake for 6 to 8 minutes more. Serves 4.

Tikka Masala Naan Pizza

Spread 2 Tbsp. sauce on naan. Top with 1/2 cup halved cherry tomatoes, 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, 1/8 tsp. crushed coriander seeds, 1/8 tsp. each nigella seeds and crushed red pepper. Bake at 425°F for 8 to 10 minutes. Serves 1.
