Indulge in the Magic of Chicken Tikka One-Pot Meal: A 20-Minute Culinary Symphony for Your Busiest Weekdays! 🍽️🕰️ Transform mundane evenings into gourmet delights with this quick and easy recipe that promises rich flavours and a satisfying meal in no time. Here’s what you’ll need:
Ingredients:
Boneless Chicken Thighs
Homemade Tikka Masala Powder
Garlic Pepper
Fresh Lemon Juice
Greek Yogurt
Onion
Ginger Garlic Paste
Roasted Cumin Powder
Whole Garam Masala
Oil
Basmati Rice
Salt
Begin by washing your boneless chicken thighs thoroughly. Prepare the tantalizing marinade using homemade or store-bought tikka masala powder, garlic pepper mix, fresh lemon juice, oil, and salt. Mix this magic elixir and set it aside.
Pro-tip: Having the marinade ready in advance makes your cooking journey even more seamless.
As your marinated chicken eagerly waits, let the stovetop sizzle with a concoction of ghee or oil (or a delightful mix of both). Introduce roasted cumin powder and five-spice powder to the hot oil, followed by whole garam masala, cinnamon stick, bay leaf, cardamom, star anise and nutmeg mace.
Once the aromatic symphony fills the air, add a generous handful of chopped onions and coax them into a caramelized bliss.
Elevate the flavour by adding ginger-garlic paste and let the kitchen aromas weave their magic for a couple more minutes. Now, it's showtime for the marinated chicken thighs.
Give them a high-flame sizzle for an intense flavour infusion. Stir in Greek yoghurt for creaminess, introduce washed basmati rice, stir again, and add hot water to the mix.
Allow this culinary canvas to paint itself into perfection. Let the rice fluff up, the chicken attain its peak succulence, and your kitchen transform into a haven of delightful aromas.
Set the table with joy, and voilà, a feast fit for the most discerning palate is ready to be relished! 🌶️🍚
