Instructions

- Pour this green masala into the chicken along with salt, black pepper powder, white pepper, cumin powder, red chili powder, additional yogurt, cooking cream and ginger garlic paste. Mix well and marinate for at least 1 hour or overnight for best results.
- Heat oil in a pan and add the chicken. On medium high heat fry for 3-4 minutes then lower the heat to medium low, cover and let the chicken cook completely which takes approximately 10 minutes.
- When the chicken is cooked, increase the heat and fry for 2-3 minutes on medium high till any remaining water dries.
- Cover again and leave the curry on low heat for 4-5 mins. The oil will separate from the gravy.
- Put the chicken in a serving plate, garnish with fresh chopped coriander and mint leaves. Sprinkle the garam masala and serve with naan or roti.
Notes
- You can substitute with bone-in chicken.
- Use freshly crushed black pepper or omit it entirely if you want to have an enhanced green colour of the curry.
