Garlic-Infused Spicy Chicken

Ingredients 0/11

Step 1

Mix together the yogurt, garlic paste, lemon juice, garam masala, white pepper, and saffron in a bowl. Add salt to taste, then toss the chicken pieces in this mixture. Cover and let it marinate in the fridge for about 10 to 12 hours—overnight works great if you have the time.

Step 2

When you’re ready to cook, heat some oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the cumin seeds and let them sizzle for 20 to 30 seconds until they release their aroma. Then, add the chicken and brown it nicely on all sides.

Step 3

Discard any leftover marinade from the bowl. Once the chicken is browned, turn the heat down to medium-low, cover the pan, and let it cook gently for about 15 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.

Step 4

Finally, stir in the cream and warm everything together for a minute or two. Serve it up right away while it’s hot and flavorful.
