Instructions
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Cook Chicken: Place the diced chicken breast in a karahi or wok, and cook it in its own juices over low heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking. |
| 2 | Add Ingredients: Add the chopped tomatoes, chili powder, spring onions, green chilies, and salt to the chicken. Cook uncovered over medium heat for 15 to 20 minutes, allowing the moisture to evaporate until the curry thickens. |
| 3 | Prepare Spice Mixture: In a separate small pan, heat the oil and fry the cumin seeds until they start to turn pink. Then, add the minced ginger and garlic, and continue cooking for another minute until fragrant. |
| 4 | Combine Mixture: Add the spice mixture to the chicken along with most of the chopped coriander. Mix everything well to ensure the flavors are evenly distributed. |
| 5 | Simmer: Let the curry simmer for an additional 5 to 7 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together and the chicken to absorb the spices. |
| 6 | Serve: Garnish the dish with the remaining fresh coriander before serving. This flavorful Karahi Chicken pairs perfectly with warm Indian breads, such as Parathas or Chapatis. Enjoy the delightful blend of spices and aromas! |
