Chicken Kosha is a popular dish of West Bengal. The people living in West Bengal (region in eastern part of India) are known as Bengalis. Chicken kosher is widely made when guests come over, during festival times or at wedding parties. It is curry with less gravy that is slow cooked along with spices and the chicken gets cooked in its own juices. Chicken kosha is often served with poori (also known as luchi in Bengali)/Basanti Pulao (Bengali sweet yellow pulao) or paratha.
