How to Make Chicken Karahi at Home: A Step-by-Step Guide

 Here is an interesting recipe of chicken karahi:


Ingredients:

  • 1 kg boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
  • 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon green chili peppers, minced
  • 1 teaspoon coriander powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin powder
  • 1 teaspoon garam masala powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon red chili powder (or to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup yogurt
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1 tablespoon oil or ghee

Instructions:

  1. In a large bowl, combine the chicken, ginger, garlic, green chili peppers, coriander powder, cumin powder, garam masala powder, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Mix well.
  2. Add the yogurt and cilantro to the chicken mixture and mix well. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, or overnight in the refrigerator.
  3. Heat the oil or ghee in a large karahi or wok over medium heat. Add the chicken mixture and cook until the chicken is browned and cooked through, about 10 minutes.
  4. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly.
  5. Serve hot with naan bread or rice.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, you can marinate the chicken in yogurt overnight.
  • If you don't have a karahi or wok, you can use a large skillet.
  • You can adjust the amount of red chili powder to taste.
  • For a smokier flavor, you can add a pinch of smoked paprika to the chicken mixture.
  • You can also add other vegetables to the chicken karahi, such as onions, tomatoes, and bell peppers.

Interesting twist:

For a more interesting twist on chicken karahi, you can add a dollop of heavy cream or coconut milk to the sauce just before serving. This will give the sauce a richer and creamier texture. You can also add a sprinkle of chopped nuts or seeds, such as almonds, cashews, or pistachios, for a bit of crunch.

Enjoy!
