Green Chicken Curry
I am in love with this recipe just because I find it to be delicious and spicy. The flavors of green pepper, cilantro and garlic play off the richness of chicken in this stunning main course. |
1 lb - Chicken chunks (boneless preferred)
1 and 1/2 - Green Bell Peppers (Capsicum)
5 - Green Serrano peppers (Green Chilles)
1 cup chopped Cilantro (Coriander)
2 medium sized Onions
4 cloves of Garlic
1 inch cut Ginger
Oil as required
1 cup - Water
Salt to taste
Preparation:
1. Grind 1/2 bell pepper, serrano peppers, cilantro into a paste and keep aside.
2. Heat oil in a pan and add the paste prepared in step 1. Saute until the raw smell of the paste goes off.
3. Meanwhile, Grind 1/2 an onion, garlic and ginger into a paste and keep aside.
4. Heat oil in a separate pan and add the paste prepared in step 3. Saute until the raw smell of the paste goes off.
5. Once both the pastes are cooked well separately, mix them together in any one of the pans and add water. When the water starts boiling add the chicken and salt and let it cook in medium flame under a closed lid for 15 mins till all water is gone and the chicken is cooked.
6. Cut the remaining onions (1 and 1/2 numbers) and bell pepper (1 number) into cubes and saute it in a pan for 3 to 4 minutes (add no water).
7. Add the above mixture to the chicken in step 5 and let it be on low flame for 2 mins.
