Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 18

½ kg chicken ((500 grams or 1 pound (preferably bone-in)))
2 to 3 tablespoons oil
1 cup onions ((3 medium onions) (fine chopped))
1 to 2 green chilies (slit (skip for less spicy))
1 tablespoon ginger garlic paste (or minced ginger garlic)
½ cup tomatoes ((2 medium tomatoes, pureed or finely chopped))
¼ cup yogurt ((substitute with 12 cashews or 3 tbsps poppy seeds, refer notes))
½ to ¾ teaspoon salt ((adjust as needed))
½ to 1 cup hot water ((or coconut milk))
2 tbsp coriander leaves (or mint leaves finely chopped)
¼ teaspoon turmeric powder
1 teaspoon red chili powder (or smoked paprika (½ tsp for less spicy))
1 teaspoon garam masala ((½ tsp more if needed, adjust to taste))
1 teaspoon coriander powder
1 bay leaf (or 1 sprig curry leaves)
4 cloves
2 inch cinnamon piece
3 green cardamom

Steps:

  • First heat oil in a deep pan, then add whatever whole spices you have - bay leaf, cinnamon, cloves & green cardamoms. Fry them till you get an aroma, just for a min.
  • Add chopped onions and chilies. Saute till the onions turn deep golden in color.
  • Next add ginger garlic paste and saute till you get a nice aroma. This just takes about a minute.
  • Then add tomatoes, turmeric and salt. Mix well and cook until the tomatoes turn soft & mushy.
  • Pour yogurt (or cashew paste), red chili powder, garam masala & coriander powder.
  • On a low heat, cook until the mixture smells good and the raw smell goes away.
  • Add chicken and coriander leaves. Fry till the chicken turns white or pale in color. This takes around 3 mins.
  • Cover and cook on a low heat for 3 to 4 minutes. This step is very important as the chicken absorbs all the flavors of the spices.
  • Meanwhile in a separate pot, heat up 1 cup water. Using cold water most times toughens the chicken so it is good to use hot water.
  • Pour hot water just enough to make a thick curry. Do not add too much water. Chicken curry will become runny. Sometimes chicken lets out lot of moisture. So use only as needed.
  • Cover and cook on a medium to low flame till the chicken is soft cooked and the curry turns thick.
  • Taste the curry & add more salt if needed.
  • You can also add another ½ tsp garam masala at this stage if you feel it is less in flavors.
  • Cover and cook on a low flame for 3 to 5 mins. When the chicken is cooked completely it will fall off the bone easily.
  • Lastly garnish with coriander leaves, cover and off the heat. Serve chicken curry with butter naan or jeera rice.

CHICKEN BREASTS WITH CURRY



Chicken Breasts With Curry image

Here, standard weeknight chicken breasts are transformed into a dish that's fragrant and spicy. It's very easy to prepare: just make a quick stew of butter, onions, celery, garlic, apple, tomatoes and curry powder. Blend that together in a food processor until it forms a thick sauce, then combine with chicken breasts that have been lightly browned. Simmer until heated through, and enjoy with a snowy pile of rice. It beats takeout curry by a mile.
