Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare Ingredients

    Chop the onions, tomatoes, garlic, ginger, and green chilies finely. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Marinate Chicken

    Cut the boneless chicken into bite-sized pieces. In a bowl, marinate the chicken with salt, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and coriander powder. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook Onions

    In a large pan, heat the cooking oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until they are golden brown.

  2. 4

    Add Garlic, Ginger, and Green Chilies

    Add the finely chopped garlic, ginger, and green chilies to the pan. Sauté for another 2-3 minutes until fragrant.

  3. 5

    Add Tomatoes

    Add the chopped tomatoes to the pan and cook until they soften and blend with the onion mixture, about 5-7 minutes.

  4. 6

    Add Chicken

    Add the marinated chicken to the pan. Stir well to coat the chicken with the spices and cook for about 5 minutes.

  5. 7

    Add Water and Spices

    Pour in the water and add cumin powder, garam masala, and salt. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.

  6. 8

    Simmer

    Cover the pan and let the curry simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce thickens.

  7. 9

    Garnish and Serve

    Once cooked, garnish the curry with freshly chopped cilantro. Serve hot with rice or bread.
