- Marinate the chicken with the marinade ingredients.
- The recipe directs you to marinate for 2 hours, but I marinated the chicken overnight.
- After marinating, bring the chicken to room temperature.
- In a heavy-bottomed pan, add half of the oil and cook the marinated chicken until tender.
- For the sauce, blend the tomatoes to make a puree.
- In a pan, heat the remaining oil and add in the chili powder, coriander powder, cumin seeds, ginger, half of the chopped green chilies, sugar and salt.
- Saute well.
- To this, add in the tomato puree, tomato paste, and fresh cream.
- Cook until the gravy thickens.
- Mix the gravy with the chicken and cook for about another 15-20 minutes with a little more cream.
- Garnish with coriander leaves, remaining thinly sliced chili, and fresh cream.
- Serve hot along with rumali rotis, rice, Indian breads or anything else.
