– Garlic cloves- 7-8 (10 gms before peeling)
– Green Chillies, cut- 2-3 (7-8 gms)

Other Ingredients:

Preparation:

– Peel and quarter the onion, peel and chop the ginger and garlic.

For infusing smoke to get a barbecue flavor-
– Fire up a small piece of charcoal directly on the gas stove till it starts glowing.
– Place a small steel bowl or aluminium foil shaped like a bowl in the middle of the marinated chicken pieces.

Process:

– Heat oil in a pan and arrange only the marinated chicken pieces without the marinade.
– Keep frying the pieces on medium to occasional high heat, keep turning the pieces till the pieces are fully browned for around 9-10 mins.
– Now add all the marinade, give a mix and fry for 2-3 mins. Add 150 ml water, give a mix and cover & cook on low heat for around 20 mins (stir once in between).
– Add 1/4 tsp of Garam masala powder, give a mix and add little water if required.
– Simmer for 2-3 mins.
– Serve with roti or naan.

  2. I tried this with chicken breast and it came out amazing! I was hoping to use the marinade to make chicken legs on the bbq and I was just wondering if you would change it in any way for that or if it’s good just as?
    Thank you so much!

  3. Tried this out just now n must say it turned out quite well. But since I hd no time to marinate I put the smoked coal while cooking. But next time I'll follow the recipe properly. Anyway thank you so much, I ws getting fed up of cooking chicken n wanted a different recipe.
