Methods
Step 1 Marinate the chicken
Add chicken pieces to a bowl and add salt, black pepper powder, vinegar, 1/2 tbsp turmeric, 1 tbsp ginger paste and 1 tbsp garlic paste to it. Mix well to coat the chicken pieces and set them aside till further usage.
Step 2 Saute the onion
Add ghee to a pot and keep it on medium heat. Add cumin seeds and let them splutter for a few seconds. Now add finely chopped onion and saute them for 5 minutes. Once the onions are translucent, add ginger paste and garlic paste. Mix well and saute for a few more minutes.
Step 3 Prepare the gravy
Now prepare a puree using the tomatoes and add it to the masala. Also add salt, black pepper powder, turmeric, red chilli powder, coriander powder and dry mango powder. Mix well and cover with a lid. Let it cook for 5-6 minutes. Remove the lid and mix the masala well. Let it cook for a few more minutes until the ghee separates.
Step 4 Add curd
Now add curd to the masala and mix continuously to prevent any lumps. Cook it for 2-3 minutes.
Step 5 Add the marinated chicken
Now add the marinated chicken pieces to the masala and coat them well. Keep the heat high and cook for 5 minutes. Now lower the flame to medium and cook until the chicken is tender. Mix it in between and add garam masala. You can add water to adjust the consistency. It is recommended to always keep the gravy thick for Bhuna Chicken.
Step 6 Garnish and serve
Once the chicken is cooked, garnish with chopped coriander leaves and fresh cream. Serve hot with roomali roti or naan.
