About Chicken peshawari

Chicken Peshawari is a flavorful dish rooted in Peshawari cuisine, originating from the city of Peshawar in Pakistan. This richly spiced preparation features tender chicken cooked with tomatoes, onions, ginger, garlic, and a medley of aromatic spices such as cumin, coriander, and garam masala. Often finished with yogurt or cream, the dish achieves a luscious texture and a balanced tanginess. Nutritionally, Chicken Peshawari offers lean protein from the chicken and a wealth of antioxidants from its spice blend, particularly turmeric and ginger, known for their anti-inflammatory properties. However, the inclusion of cream or yogurt and any added oils can increase its calorie and fat content. Pairing it with whole-grain roti or brown rice can make the meal more balanced and fiber-rich. For a healthier option, using minimal oil and opting for reduced-fat yogurt can maintain its rich flavors while keeping it light and nutritious.
