Steps
- 1
Combine the cubed chicken with the salt, coriander powder, red chili powder, turmeric, garam masala, yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, red food color, and corn starch. Mix thoroughly so the chicken is evenly coated, then let it marinate for a few hours.
- 2
Heat oil in a pan and shallow-fry the marinated chicken over medium-high heat until crispy on all sides. Remove the chicken and set it aside.
- 3
Using the same pan, add some oil if needed, then add the chopped garlic. Sauté with the hot green chilies and curry leaves until aromatic.
- 4
Add the gravy ingredients—the yogurt, ketchup, soy sauce, chili sauce, red chili powder, and black pepper—to the pan. Cook the yogurt sauce until its color changes.
- 5
Add the fried chicken to the sauce and coat it well. Add water if the sauce is too thick.
- 6
Cover the pan and let the chicken simmer until it is cooked through.
- 7
Garnish with cilantro and serve immediately.
Notes
The source does not specify the exact marinating duration, frying time, simmering time, oil quantity, amount of curry leaves or cilantro, or a target chicken temperature. Use enough oil to shallow-fry the chicken and ensure the chicken is fully cooked before serving.
