Ingredients
- 1 whole chicken
- 2 medium sized onion (I prefer to use red onion)
- Cooking Oil (I prefer to use Olive Oil, unless otherwise mentioned, NOT the extra virgin type)
- Salt
- Kewra water
- See the section below for marination
Marination (Minimum 2 hrs/Overnight)
Grind the following to a smooth paste and mix with the chicken
- 4-5 Cloves of Garlic
- 1” Ginger
- 4 Whole Green Cardamom
- 8-9 Whole Black Peppercorn
- 2 Green Chili
- 1 cup Yogurt (I prefer Greek Style; add 1 table spoon of water and beat it to make lump-free)
Preparation
- Take 4 table spoon oil in a wok
- Fry the onions until they are golden brown
- Take out 3/4th of the onion and put aside (can use paper towel for soaking up excess oil). Crumble them with hands when they have cooled down
- In the remaining 1/4th of the fried onions, add back the chicken and cover cook for about 20 minutes. Need to check once in a while and keep stirring
- Add salt to taste
- When the chicken is almost done, add the crumbled onion and 1/2 tea spoon on Kewra water
- Serve hot with Chapati/Naan
