Marinade:
In a large bowl, combine yogurt, lemon juice, cumin, cinnamon, cayenne, black pepper, ginger, and salt. Stir in chicken, cover; refrigerate 1 hour.
When ready to cook, preheat grill on high heat. Lightly oil the grill grate.
Thread chicken onto 4 long skewers; discard marinade. Grill chicken until juices run clear, about 5 minutes per side.
Melt butter in a large heavy skillet over medium heat; saute garlic and jalapeno for 1 minute. Season with cumin, paprika and salt. Stir in tomato sauce and heavy cream. Simmer on low heat until sauce thickens, about 20 minutes. Add grilled chicken; simmer 10 minutes.
Transfer to a serving platter. Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro.
