Coriander Chicken recipe - referred prominently as Dhania Chicken is a delicious curry from Bengali cuisine. Unlike other chicken curries, it is much easier to prepare and involves a diverse range of aromatic spices and herbs from our very own Indian kitchen. The fine blend of market-fresh coriander leaves, mint leaves and yogurt makes the yummy green chutney which when added to the gravy gives a special flavour and a memorable taste to this finger-licking side dish.
Make sure you check the consistency of the gravy at every step of your cooking process, a thick consistency being the crowd favourite. This Dhania Chicken is an amazing combo when served with roti or naan.

- Add the marinated chicken, fry until the colour of the chicken changes.
- In a small mixing bowl add the chopped tomatoes, coriander powder, cumin powder, and pepper powder. Add a little water and prepare the paste.

- In the mean time, prepare the green chutney.
- In a grinder, add the coriander leaves and the mint leaves. Add 2 tbsp of yogurt. Grind this to a fine paste.
