Indian Chicken Curry Ingredients
Murgha Kari makes use of a potent
spice blend that includes garam masala, coriander, turmeric, and cayenne
pepper. Tomato, yogurt, and onion are also essential ingredients in this
classic Indian main dish. Fresh minced garlic and ginger lend a pleasant
sharpness. Our top-rated recipe uses skinless, boneless chicken breasts for a
tender, evenly cooked result, but other cuts like tenderloin and thigh make
suitable substitutions.
Make Chicken Curry :
Start by partially cooking your
seasoned chicken breasts in a large pan, removing them after they're browned.
After setting the chicken breasts aside, cook garlic, onions, and ginger in the
same pan to create the flavor base.
Once the onions are translucent, add
in spices, tomatoes, yogurt, and chicken to cook thoroughly. Cover and simmer
for about 20 minutes for a wow-worthy chicken curry. Finish with fresh herbs
and a squeeze of lemon.
