Notes
-
- Cook the chicken on low heat.
-
- Avoid over-roasting the onions and ginger; sauté them just until lightly pink.
-
- Whisk the yogurt until smooth before using, and gradually add this to the chicken while stirring continuously.
-
- If the masala begins to stick to the pan, add a splash of water to prevent burning.
- Want to turn up the heat? Stir in my quick 2-ingredient chili oil, which takes this chicken to the next level of flavor.
