Ingredients: 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken, cut into cubes; 2 tablespoons cooking oil; 1 large onion, finely chopped; 3 cloves garlic, minced; 1-inch piece of ginger, grated; 1 teaspoon cumin seeds; 1 teaspoon coriander powder; 1 teaspoon turmeric powder; 1 teaspoon red chili powder; 1 teaspoon garam masala; 1 cup tomato puree; Salt to taste; Fresh cilantro leaves for garnish

Instructions

In a large skillet or pan, heat the cooking oil over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and let them splutter for a few seconds until fragrant.
Add the chopped onions to the skillet and sauté until they turn translucent and start to caramelize, about 5-6 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for another 1-2 minutes until aromatic.
Add the cubed chicken pieces to the skillet and cook until they start to brown on all sides, about 8-10 minutes.
Sprinkle the coriander powder, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and garam masala over the chicken, stirring well to ensure the spices coat the meat evenly.
Pour in the tomato puree, stirring to combine all the ingredients. Allow the mixture to come to a gentle simmer.
Cover the skillet with a lid and let the chicken cook in the flavorful sauce for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking or burning.
Taste the dish and adjust the salt and spice levels according to your preference.
Once the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened to your liking, remove the skillet from the heat.
Garnish the Red Chicken In Urdu with fresh cilantro leaves for a burst of flavor and color before serving.
Serve the dish hot with steamed rice, naan bread, or your favorite side dishes for a complete and satisfying meal.
