Indian Chicken With Vegetables (Murgh Subji Wala) - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
3 lbs chicken pieces
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 large onion, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 teaspoons minced ginger
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
1 bell pepper, seeded and cut into 1/4-inch strips
3 medium tomatoes, sliced into 1/2-inch wedges
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
1 tablespoon coriander powder
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon garam masala
Preparation
-
Remove skin and all visible fat from chicken; cut small slits into chicken to allow seasoning to penetrate; set aside.
Heat oil in large saucepan; cook chicken pieces over medium-high heat until chicken is opaque, turning frequently, 5-6 minutes.
Remove chicken from pan and set aside.
Add cumin, onion, garlic, turmeric, and ginger to pan; cook stirring constantly until onions are caramelized, about 6-7 minutes.
Add bell pepper, tomato, mushrooms, cayenne pepper, coriander powder and salt, stirring to mix well.
Place chicken in pan, cover, reduce heat, and simmer till chicken is tender, 25-35 minutes.
Remove from heat and sprinkle with garam masala.
Serve with rice, hot breads such as naan or rotis, and vegetable dishes such as chole or saag, and possibly a salad.
I also like to have fresh chilies and lemon wedges available as condiments also.
