dhaniya chicken

Ingredients:

1 lb chicken

~3/4 bunch of Dhaniya/coriander leaves

1/2 cup yogurt

1/2 large sized onion (when chopped came to a little less than 1 cup)

6 cloves of garlic chopped

2 tsp ginger paste

1/2 tsp red chilly powder (I reduced this, if you can use more to your taste to make it a bit spicy)

salt to taste

~ 1/3 cup oil or maybe a few drops more

Method:

Make a paste of ginger, garlic, cilantro. Mix with chopped onions, yogurt and salt. Marinade chicken in this and keep in the refrigerator for 3 hrs or longer.

Heat oil and add the chicken and marinade together. As soon as it starts to boil reduce the heat and let it simmer till oil separates from the masala and chicken is fully cooked. Do not add any water, it is meant to be a somewhat dry dish.

Enjoy with rice or rotis!
