We buy chicken atleast once or twice in a week. Each time i make it different ways. Most of the time it will be a curry, a roast kind of dish and a fried chicken dish..Sometimes i make it thick and masala like, so it goes well with chapati or paratha.
I make masala chicken dish two ways one with coconut and other without coconut. This recipe is using coconut and i will share the other version soon.
