CHILI DHANIYA CHICKEN CURRY

Chicken is the most favorite dish of many people. Here is the recipe for quick chicken curry. There is no compromise in the taste.

Most of the chicken curry recipe has tomato for a tangy flavor. But in this recipe tomato is not used. The coriander powder gives extra taste to the chicken.

This is a must try recipe. Sure you will like it. It goes well with rice, roti and dosa. Rice is the best combination. We can have it as a side dish with rice by making the water in the curry to evaporate. It can also be used as a main course with rice by leaving the curry as such with water.
