Ingredients

• 500g boneless chicken, cut into bite-sized pieces
• 1 cup onions, finely chopped
• 1 cup tomatoes, finely chopped
• 3 tbsp yogurt
• 1.5 tbsp ginger garlic paste
• 3 green chilies, chopped
• 1/2 tsp turmeric powder

Instructions

1. Heat a pan over medium-high heat with a splash of oil and sauté the onions until translucent and golden, about 5-7 minutes.
2. Add the ginger garlic paste and chopped green chilies, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
3. Stir in the chopped tomatoes, turmeric, coriander powder, chili powders, and salt; cook for 4-5 minutes until the tomatoes soften and oil begins to separate.
4. Add the chicken pieces and sear for 3-4 minutes until the outside is opaque.
5. Lower the heat to medium-low, stir in the yogurt, and cover the pan, simmering for 8-10 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
