Instructions:
Chicken Marinade: In a pan, heat 1½ tbsp of mustard oil till it smokes for about 5 seconds. Transfer to a bowl.
Add paprika, salt, ginger paste, garlic paste, lime juice, and yogurt. Mix well.
Add the chicken cubes to the marinade and let sit for 10-15 minutes.
Cook the Chicken: Fry the marinated chicken for 4-5 minutes. If you have a small pan, fry them in batches to avoid overcrowding. Once 90% cooked, transfer to a plate.
Prepare the Masala: In the same pan, add 1 tsp of oil and toss in the crushed cardamom, cinnamon stick, and cumin. Sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add chopped onions, a pinch of salt, and green chilies. Splash some water to loosen up the bits from the pan and sauté until light brown and soft.
Add water, ginger paste, garlic paste, and paprika. Mix well.
Throw in the cubed tomatoes, salt, and turmeric. Cover and simmer on low heat for 15-16 minutes.
Blend: Once the tomatoes are cooked, blend the mixture until smooth. Strain to achieve a clean texture.
Finish the Gravy: Over low heat, add garam masala, Kasuri methi, and honey or sugar to taste. Mix well.
Add the reserved chicken and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.
Final Touch: Add a dollop of ghee, sprinkle chopped coriander, and thinly sliced ginger.
Mix well and serve your masterpiece with roti, naan, or rice!
