Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Wash the chicken pieces thoroughly and pat them dry. Chop the onions, tomatoes, and bell peppers. Mince the ginger and garlic.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Heat Oil

    In a large kadai or wok, heat the oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the chopped onions and sauté until they turn golden brown.

  2. 3

    Add Ginger and Garlic

    Add the minced ginger and garlic to the onions and sauté for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

  3. 4

    Cook Tomatoes

    Add the chopped tomatoes to the kadai. Cook until the tomatoes are soft and mushy, about 5-7 minutes.

  4. 5

    Add Spices

    Stir in the turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and salt. Mix well and cook for another 2-3 minutes to incorporate the spices.

  5. 6

    Cook Chicken

    Add the chicken pieces to the kadai, stirring well to coat them with the tomato and spice mixture. Cook for about 10-15 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink.

  6. 7

    Add Bell Peppers

    Stir in the diced bell peppers and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until they are tender yet still crisp.

  7. 8

    Finish with Garam Masala

    Sprinkle the garam masala over the chicken and give it a final stir. Cook for another minute.

  8. 9

    Garnish

    Remove from heat and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.
