Just mix some cornstarch with cold water and stir it into the sauce. It'll thicken up in no time!
Honestly, just let the sauce cook down. More time on the stove equals thicker sauce.
I once used a tablespoon of tomato paste to thicken my tikka masala. Worked like a charm and added a nice depth to the sauce!
