Here the chicken is marinated overnight with most of the ingredients, then baked, then magically creating a curry. If you prefer a slightly sweeter taste, add two tablespoons of sultanas to the marinade. Serve with rice and Shemin’s Indian Breads.
4
Medium9 chicken thigh fillets (approx. 1 kilo)
1 tsp salt
