Why This Dish Is So Satisfying

This stew is a comforting blend of tender chicken and hearty vegetables simmered in a rich, flavorful broth. It’s perfect for chilly days when you want something warm and satisfying. The combination of ingredients makes it both nutritious and delicious.

Best Cooking Tips

- Brown the chicken well before adding the vegetables to deepen the flavor.
- Use fresh herbs for a brighter taste, adding them towards the end of cooking.
- If the stew is too thick, add a little water or broth to reach your desired consistency.

Step 1

Blend fried onions, green chilies, and coriander leaves in a food processor until finely chopped. Add the chicken along with salt, chili powder, crushed cumin, coriander powder, and roasted chickpea powder. Blend everything into a smooth, paste-like mixture.

Step 2

Transfer the mixture to a bowl and stir in the ginger-garlic paste really well.

Step 3

Lightly oil your hands, then take small portions of the mixture and shape them into little kebabs. You can use a straw, skewer, or even a clean pencil to hold their shape.

Step 4

Heat some oil in a pan over medium-low heat and fry the kebabs until they turn golden brown. Once done, remove them from the pan and set aside.

Step 5

For the gravy, heat oil in a pan and sauté ginger-garlic paste for a minute or two. Add the tomato puree and cook on medium-low until the oil starts to separate, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Stir in fried onions, salt, chili powder, coriander powder, turmeric, and crushed cumin. Mix everything well and cook for another minute.

Step 7

Add yogurt and let it simmer for a few minutes, then gently add the fried kebabs to the gravy. Pour in some cream for a rich, smooth finish and give everything a good stir.

Step 8

Sprinkle chopped coriander leaves on top, turn off the heat, and garnish with a few extra coriander leaves and chilies before serving.

How To Enjoy This Dish

Serve this stew with crusty bread or over a bed of creamy mashed potatoes to soak up the delicious sauce. A simple green salad on the side can add a refreshing contrast. It also pairs nicely with a glass of light red wine.

Storing Leftovers

Allow the stew to cool completely before storing it in an airtight container. It will keep well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. For longer storage, freeze in portions and thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating gently on the stove.
