Description

A delicious and flavorful spicy chicken curry made with tender chicken pieces simmered in a rich tomato-based gravy infused with a blend of aromatic spices. This comforting Indian dish is perfect for a hearty meal served with rice or flatbreads.


Ingredients

Scale

Chicken

  • 1 lb (450g) chicken, cut into pieces
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • 2 medium tomatoes, pureed
  • 1 tsp ginger-garlic paste
  • 12 green chilies, chopped
  • 1 tsp turmeric powder
  • 1 tbsp red chili powder
  • 2 tsp coriander powder
  • 1 tsp garam masala
  • Salt to taste
  • Fresh coriander leaves for garnish

Optional

  • 1/4 cup water or chicken broth (adjust for desired gravy consistency)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the ingredients: Wash and cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces. Finely chop the onions and green chilies. Puree the tomatoes or use canned tomato puree.
  2. Sauté onions: Heat oil in a deep skillet or pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes. This step builds the flavor base.
  3. Add ginger-garlic and spices: Add the ginger-garlic paste and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Then add turmeric, red chili powder, coriander powder, and salt. Stir to combine and cook the spices briefly to release their aromas.
  4. Add tomato puree: Pour in the pureed tomatoes and chopped green chilies. Cook the mixture, stirring occasionally, until the oil begins to separate from the masala, about 8-10 minutes. This indicates the masala is well cooked.
  5. Cook the chicken: Add the chicken pieces to the pan, stirring to coat them well with the masala. Cover and cook on medium heat for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add water or chicken broth if the curry is too thick.
  6. Finish the curry: Once the chicken is fully cooked and tender, sprinkle garam masala over the curry. Stir well and cook for another 2 minutes for the flavors to meld.
  7. Garnish and serve: Turn off the heat and garnish with chopped fresh coriander leaves. Serve hot with steamed rice, naan, or roti.

Notes

  • You can adjust the heat by varying the amount of green chilies and red chili powder.
  • For a creamier curry, add a splash of cream or coconut milk towards the end of cooking.
  • Use boneless chicken for quicker cooking and easier eating.
  • The gravy thickens as it cools; adjust consistency with water as needed.
