Step 5

Heat large saucepan over medium heat; add remaining tablespoon oil. Cook garlic and onions, stirring frequently, until light brown.

Step 6

Add remaining 1 3/4 cups broth, chile paste, cumin, cinnamon, salt, pepper, lemon juice and orange juice. Cook for 20 minutes or until the sauce thickens to desired consistency. Cool for 20 minutes.
