Chef's Tips

  • Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes for better flavor.
  • Freshly chopped onions create a richer gravy.
  • Cook the masala until oil separates to develop deeper taste.
  • Simmer on low heat for tender and juicy chicken.
  • Avoid adding too much water at once.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Using stale spices.
  • Cooking onions on high flame.
  • Adding chicken before the masala is cooked.
  • Overcooking the chicken.
  • Skipping the resting time before serving.
