Chicken Karhai
- 3 Tablespoons Vegetable Oil
- 1 Tablespoon Chopped Ginger
- 5 whole Black Peppercorns
- 4 whole Cloves
- 1 whole Cinnamon Stick
- 5 cloves Garlic, Sliced
- 2 whole Jalapeno Or Serrano Peppers, Slit Down The Center
- 1 pound Chicken, Cut Into Small Pieces
- 1 can (14 Oz. Size) Diced Tomatoes, Or About 3 Large Ripe Tomatoes, Diced
- 1 dash Salt To Taste
- 1/4 cups Qasoori Methi Leaves (you Can Find This At Any Indian Grocery Store, But If You Can't It's Okay)
- 1/4 cups Fresh Cilantro, Chopped
- Heat the oil over medium heat and add the ginger, black peppercorns, cloves, and cinnamon stick and fry for a minute or so.
- Add the garlic and peppers and stir fry for another minute or so.
- It should be fragrant by now, but be careful so the garlic doesnt burn.
- Throw in the chicken and cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink.
- Add in the tomatoes, stir, cover and cook for about 10 minutes.
- The tomatoes should start to break down at this point.
- Add the salt.
- When the chicken is just about done cooking (should only take about 15 minutes) take off the lid so some of the water can evaporate.
- It should have some gravy but not too much.
- Add qasoori methi leaves and cilantro.
- Serve with hot naan or steamed rice.
