Ingredients

  • 200 g boneless chicken breast or thigh cut into big pieces
  • 4 tablespoon tandoori paste homemade or store bought
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1 large onion chopped
  • 2 tomatoes chopped
  • 1 cm ginger sliced
  • 1 large green chilli chopped
  • ¼ cup coriander cilantro leaves, chopped
  • Water
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Marinate chicken with 11/2 tablespoon tandoori paste in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken. Cook, turning, for 5-10 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and browned. Break the chicken into small bite-sized pieces. Cook, stirring, for another 3 minutes.
  • Add onions, ginger, tomatoes, green chilies and coriander (cilantro leaves). Stir in the remaining tandoori paste. Mix well. Add a little water to get a semisolid consistency. Bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium, and cook, covered, for 5 minutes.
