Tomato Chicken

This is one of the delicious recipes out of chicken. Recipe source is from My kitchen Flavors. I have made slight changes in it. Here goes the recipe.

Ingredients

Chicken: 500 gms (preferably boneless)

Onion: 1 medium

Tomatoes: 3-4 big

Ginger paste: 1tbsp

Garlic paste: 1tbsp

Turmeric powder: ½ tsp

Salt: needed

Garam Masala: 1tsp

Coconut oil: 2tbsp + 1tbsp

Fennel seeds: 1tsp

Curry leaves: few

Coriander leaves: 1 string

Method of Preparation

Grind onion to a smooth paste. And tomato also to a smooth paste. Keep aside.

Heat oil in a pan, add crushed dry chilli, stir and add onion paste, sauté for a while and add ginger and garlic paste to it.

Stir for 1 minute and add tomato paste to it. Add salt.

When oil starts to float add turmeric powder and garam masala. Stir and add the chicken pieces.

Add curry leaves. Stir well. Close with a lid. Put in low flame.

No need to add water, from chicken itself water will produce. If you need more gravy can add 1 cup water.

Stir frequently till it gets cooked.

When chicken gets cooked and gravy becomes dry add crushed fennel seeds and coriander leaves.

Switch off the flame.

If you like the taste of coconut oil you can add 1tbsp coconut oil at this stage. (This step is optional)
