Recipe Summary

All Ingredients - Main Ingredients

  1. Chicken 1 kg (2.2 lbs)
  2. Salt 1 tsp
  3. Black Pepper 1 tsp
  4. Chili Powder 1 tsp
  5. Cumin Powder 1 tsp
  6. Coriander Powder 1 tsp
  7. Turmeric Powder 1 tsp
  8. Fresh Green Chilies to taste
  9. Red Onion 1 cup, chopped
  10. Ginger Garlic Paste 1 tbsp
  11. Tomatoes 2 cups, chopped
  12. Oil 2-3 tbsp
  13. Water 1 cup

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Chicken Mix

In a large bowl, combine the chicken pieces, oil, chopped tomatoes, chopped onion, ginger garlic paste, fresh green chilies, salt, pepper, chili powder, cumin, coriander, and turmeric. Mix everything together thoroughly until the chicken is well-coated with all the ingredients.

Step 2: Start Cooking

Place a large pot on the stove over a medium-high heat. Transfer the entire chicken mixture from the bowl into the pot.

Step 3: Sauté the Mixture

Stir and cook the mixture for 6-7 minutes, allowing the chicken to start cooking and the spices to become fragrant.

Step 4: Add Water and Simmer

Pour in 1 cup of water and stir to combine. Bring the curry to a simmer.

Step 5: Cover and Cook

Cover the pot with a lid and let the curry cook for 25 to 30 minutes.

Step 6: Reduce the Gravy

After 25-30 minutes, remove the lid. Continue to cook with the lid off for another 5-6 minutes to allow the gravy to reduce and thicken to your desired consistency.

Step 7: Serve

Once the gravy has thickened, the chicken curry is ready. Serve hot.

Pro Tips

If you don't have the separate spices, you can substitute them with 4 teaspoons of curry powder.

Use ripe, juicy tomatoes for the best flavor and gravy.

The amount of fresh chili can be adjusted according to your spice preference.
