Description

Chicken Masala is a popular North Indian dish featuring tender chicken pieces cooked in a rich, spicy onion-tomato-based gravy. The chicken is typically marinated with yogurt and spices, then cooked with a blend of aromatic spices including cumin, coriander, turmeric, red chili powder, and garam masala, creating a flavorful and robust curry. The preparation involves sautéing onions, garlic, and ginger, adding pureed tomatoes and spices, followed by the chicken, which simmers until tender and infused with the masala flavors. Chicken Masala can be prepared with either bone-in or boneless chicken and is often served hot with naan, roti, or steamed basmati rice. This dish is known for its balanced heat, depth of flavor, and comforting, hearty taste.
