Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Marinate with salt, black pepper, and half of the ginger and garlic for 15 minutes.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.

  2. 3

    Sauté Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add more oil if needed. Sauté the onions until translucent. Add ginger, garlic, and green chili, cooking for another minute.

  3. 4

    Add Spices and Tomatoes

    Stir in the cumin, coriander, turmeric, and chopped tomatoes. Cook until the tomatoes break down, about 3-4 minutes.

  4. 5

    Combine Chicken and Peppers

    Add the cooked chicken back to the skillet along with the bell peppers. Sprinkle garam masala, and stir well. Cook for another 5-7 minutes until the peppers are tender but still crisp.

  5. 6

    Adjust Seasoning

    Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper if needed. Serve hot.
