Gongura Chicken Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Gongura

   Wash the gongura leaves thoroughly in water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry and chop them roughly. Set aside.

2. 2

   Marinate the Chicken

   In a large bowl, combine the boneless chicken with turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Mix well and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

3. 3

   Cook Onion and Tomato

   In a large pan, heat the cooking oil over medium heat. Add finely chopped onion and sauté until it turns golden brown. Add chopped tomato and cook until it softens.

4. 4

   Add Ginger-Garlic and Green Chilies

   Add ginger-garlic paste and slit green chilies to the pan. Sauté for about 2 minutes until the raw smell disappears.

5. 5

   Cook Chicken

   Add the marinated chicken into the pan. Stir well to combine with the onion and tomato mixture. Cook for 10 minutes until the chicken is browned.

6. 6

   Add Gongura Leaves

   Stir in the chopped gongura leaves. Mix well and cover the pan. Cook for another 10 minutes, adding water as needed to prevent sticking.

7. 7

   Finish the Dish

   Once the chicken is cooked and the gongura has wilted, add garam masala. Stir well and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Adjust the salt according to taste.
