Cooking Instructions
- Begin by cutting your boneless chicken thighs or breasts into sizable chunks. In a bowl, combine these pieces with Greek yogurt, Kashmiri red chili powder, salt, and lemon juice. Ensure all the chicken is thoroughly coated. Cover and refrigerate this mixture for at least 8 hours or overnight.
- In a large skillet, heat a couple of tablespoons of oil or ghee over medium heat. Once hot, add finely chopped onions along with a pinch of salt. Cook the onions for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they turn golden brown.
- Incorporate ginger garlic paste and optional chili. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant.
- Stir in turmeric, garam masala, coriander, and cumin powders. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Add chopped tomatoes and cook for about 10 minutes until sauce thickens.
- Pour in about one cup of hot water, stirring to combine. Cover and let simmer for 15-20 minutes over low heat.
- Grill chicken pieces on medium-high heat for about 5-7 minutes per side, until charred and cooked through.
- Stir heavy cream into the simmered sauce, then fold in grilled chicken pieces along with kasuri methi. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes over low heat.
- Transfer to a serving dish, drizzle with extra cream and sprinkle with fresh coriander leaves before serving.
