Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Heat the vegetable oil in a karahi or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the cumin seeds and let them sizzle for a few seconds until fragrant.

  2. Add the sliced onions to the pan and sauté until they turn golden brown, stirring occasionally to prevent burning, for about 5-7 minutes.

  3. Stir in the garlic and ginger, and cook for another minute until the raw aroma dissipates.

  4. Add the chopped tomatoes to the pan and cook until they break down and release their juices, this should take about 5-8 minutes.

  5. Sprinkle in the coriander powder, red chili powder, turmeric powder, and salt. Mix well to combine with the tomato mixture.

  6. Toss in the chicken pieces, and stir to coat them evenly in the flavorful sauce. Cover the pan and let the chicken cook for about 15-20 minutes until it is cooked through, stirring occasionally.

  7. Add the sliced green chilies and continue cooking for another 5 minutes. Adjust the seasoning if needed at this stage for your desired level of spiciness.

  8. Once the chicken is cooked and the sauce has thickened, garnish with freshly chopped cilantro leaves for a pop of freshness and color.

  9. Serve hot with steamed white rice, naan bread, or roti on the side and enjoy the authentic flavors of Chicken Karahi Special.
