Quick Chicken Karahi Spicy Chicken And Tomatoes With Chiles Recipes

CHICKEN KARAHI

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large deep frying pan adding chopped onions and fry for 4 to 5 minutes on a medium heat or once the onions are slightly brown. Add the garlic and ginger and cook for a further 1 or 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, salt, chili powder, green chili, ground cumin and turmeric.
• Turn up the heat and further cook for another 1 minute then put in the chicken. It is very crucial that spices are mixed within the pan at this point to ensure that the chicken cooks with texture and flavor. Add water after stirring the chicken into the spices.
• Turn down the heat slightly and stir in the garam masala and fenugreek and cook for a further 5 minutes, also adding in the bell pepper stirring now and again. Serve sprinkled with green coriander.

Steps:

• Heat ghee in a karahi, wok or high-sided 10- to 12-inch skillet over medium for 30 seconds. Add dried chiles and stir. Add garlic paste, ginger paste, chicken and the finely chopped Thai chiles. Stir-fry over high heat until the chicken is no longer pink, about 6 minutes.
