Ingredients
  

For the Chicken Ghee Roast
  • 500 grams chicken, cut into pieces Use fresh chicken for better flavor.

  2. Marinate the chicken with the spice mix and let it sit for at least an hour to infuse the flavors.
Cooking

  2. Add the marinated chicken to the pan and cook until tender and all flavors are absorbed (approximately 30 minutes).

For optimal flavor, marinate overnight if possible. This dish pairs well with fluffy basmati rice, naan, or a side of cucumber raita. Avoid overcooking the chicken to maintain tenderness.
