Kadai Chicken
Kadai Chicken is a very delicious chicken curry dish usually served in restaurants. This easy to prepare curry dish is popular for its simplicity and hence a favorite with all. Chicken pieces are cooked in a thick bottomed ‘Kadhai’. No additional water is added while cooking. Chicken pieces are being cooked in its own steam and from the onions added. The distinct aroma of capsicum and the mild spicy flavored gravy of Kadai Chicken are simply enticing. Kadai Chicken goes well with naan, roti, chappathi and almost all rice based dishes. The juicy, soft, chicken pieces simmering in a mildly spiced broth is a non vegetarian delight. Our Kadai Chicken recipe is well illustrated in simple sentences.

not good
I tried this recipe and it tasted like any other chicken curry…Nothing special..
Tried this out..Tasted like an ordinary chicken curry,no where near the Kadai chicken which we get from hotel…
Just an ordinary chicken curry…didnt taste like kadai chicken!
nothing special in this recipe. tastes like normal curry.the name “kadai chk” is not suitable.
kadai chi recipe normally have capsicum,, but this????
after reading the recipe & the comments about the 1 litre water i am really very confused whether to try this recipe or no i don`t think i will dare to try it
can anyone tell me what to do with 1 ltr water????
What is the difference between garam masala and powdered masala, never heard of anythin like that, how can garam masala be made without coriander seeds. The recipe is for the normal chicken curry we make, why is it called kadai chicken???
Hi, I am tempted to try, promises to be good. But pl tell me what to do with the 1 litre water mentioned in the ingredients list !!
Shoba
sounds good! will try it soon…people who hate the recipe…use the 1 litre water to drown yourselves.
This dish came out good… but there was a slight taste of the Cumin seeds… i had put in 1/2 tsp as said but guess that much isnt required… apart frm that the dish was not bad…
