Step-by-Step Cooking Process

Step 1: Marinate the Chicken (30 minutes)

Take 1 kg chicken and cut it into medium-sized pieces.
Add salt (1.5-2 tsp), ginger garlic paste (2 tsp), lemon juice (1/2 lemon), and crushed green chilies (7-8).
Mix well and let it marinate for 30 minutes.

Step 2: Preparing the Base (10 minutes)

Heat 1/2 cup oil and 2 tbsp ghee in a pan.
Add whole spices (cinnamon, black pepper, shah jeera, cloves, and cardamom) and sauté for a minute.
Add blended onion paste (3 medium onions) and cook until light golden.

Step 3: Making the Masala (15 minutes)

Blend 30 soaked cashews into a smooth paste and keep aside.
Add ginger garlic paste (1 tbsp) to the cooked onions and sauté.
Add the marinated chicken and cook on high flame for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently.

Step 4: Cooking the Chicken (20 minutes)

Turn off the flame and add 200g yogurt, coriander powder (1 tsp), cumin powder (1 tsp), and white pepper powder (1 tsp).
Mix well, turn the flame back on, and cook on medium heat for 10 minutes.
Cover with a lid and cook on low flame for another 10 minutes.

Step 5: Adding Creaminess (10 minutes)

Add the cashew paste and mix well.
Adjust the consistency by adding milk (1/4 cup).
Cook on high flame for 3 minutes.
Add fresh green chilies (4-5) for extra spice.
Cover and cook on low flame until chicken is fully tender (about 12 minutes).
Finally, add 2-3 tbsp fresh cream, mix, and let it cook for another 2 minutes.

Step 6: Garnishing and Serving

Check salt and spice levels, adjusting if needed.
Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and a sprinkle of chaat masala.

Use full-fat yogurt – This ensures a creamy texture.
Add fresh cream at the end – This enhances the richness.
