Punjabi Chicken
(1 Servings)Ingredients
1 | 150 g chicken thighs, boneless and skinless, cut into bite-sized pieces |
2 | 15 ml vegetable oil |
3 | 1 small onion, finely chopped (about 50 g) |
4 | 1 garlic clove, minced |
5 | 1 cm piece of ginger, grated |
6 | 1 medium tomato, chopped (about 100 g) |
7 | 1/2 tsp cumin seeds |
8 | 1/2 tsp coriander powder |
9 | 1/4 tsp turmeric powder |
10 | 1/2 tsp garam masala |
11 | 1/4 tsp red chili powder (adjust to taste) |
12 | Salt to taste |
13 | Fresh coriander leaves, for garnish |
Step-by-Step Instructions
Heat the Oil: In a medium-sized pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and let them sizzle for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Cook the Onions: Add the chopped onion to the pan and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they are golden brown.
Add Garlic and Ginger: Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes until aromatic.
Add Tomatoes and Spices: Add the chopped tomato, coriander powder, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Cook for about 5 minutes until the tomatoes soften and the mixture becomes a thick paste.
Cook the Chicken: Add the chicken pieces to the pan, stirring well to coat them in the spice mixture. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through.
Finish with Garam Masala: Sprinkle the garam masala over the chicken and mix well. Cook for another 2-3 minutes.
Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat, garnish with fresh coriander leaves, and serve hot with rice or naan.
