Preparation

Step 1 - 🐔✨🕒

Start your preparation by marinating 500g boneless chicken thighs with 1 tsp each of turmeric, paprika, 2 tsp of garam masala, 1 tbsp each of grated ginger and minced garlic, and add salt to taste. Let it sit for at least 20 minutes.

Place your skillet on medium heat and add 2 tbsp of neutral cooking oil.
Step 3 - 🍳🐔🍽️
