Murg Do Pyaza



What we need:

chicken
Onion (half sliced, half cubed)
Tomato (amount - half of the amount of onion)
Ginger-garlic paste (garlic is double in amount than that of ginger)
Coriander powder
Turmeric powder
Red chilli powder
Bay leaf
lemon juice
Salt
Coriander leaves for garnishing

How we make it:

Marinate chicken with salt, turmeric powder, red chilli powder and coriander powder for at least half an hour. Heat oil in a pan. Add bayleaf for tempering. Add sliced onions, stir. Then add a little salt. Cook till it turns into brown in colour. Then add tomato pieces. Cook well. Add ginger-garlic paste and cook well until oil separates from the mixture. Then add the marinated chicken pieces with all the spices it was marinated with. Cook it well until chicken is half-done. Then add the cubed onion pieces and mix it well. Cook it for sometime. Now ass warm water to the chicken to make it softer. Cover with a lid. Leave it for sometime. Cook until the chicken is done. It does not have lots of gravy, so keep that in mind. now check the salt. If it is ok then add lemon juice. Serve hot with roti or naan or fried rice after garnishing with coriander leaves.
