Chicken Salan is a flavorful curry dish originating from South Asian cuisine, particularly Pakistani and North Indian traditions. The dish features tender chicken simmered in a spiced gravy made with tomatoes, onions, ginger, garlic, and a blend of aromatic spices such as cumin, coriander, turmeric, and red chili powder. Often enriched with yogurt or cream to add depth and richness, Chicken Salan is typically served alongside steamed rice or flatbreads like naan or roti. From a nutritional perspective, the dish is a good source of protein thanks to the chicken. Its base ingredients like tomatoes, onions, and spices provide vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. However, depending on preparation, it can be high in saturated fat if made with cream or excessive oil. Opting for lighter alternatives and mindful cooking methods can make it a flavorful yet balanced addition to a wholesome meal.
