Ingredients

• 500 grams Boneless chicken breast
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 large Onion
• 4 cloves Garlic
• 1 inch piece Ginger
• 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
• 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
• 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
• 150 grams Low-fat plain yogurt
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
• 1 cup Water

Directions

Step 1

Cut the boneless chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and set aside.

Step 2

Finely chop the onion, garlic, and ginger.

Step 3

In a large non-stick pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the onion to the pan and sauté until it turns golden brown, about 5 minutes.

Step 5

Add the garlic and ginger and sauté for an additional 2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 6

Sprinkle the cumin powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder, and red chili powder over the onions. Stir well to roast the spices briefly.

Step 7

Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

Step 8

Add the chicken pieces to the pan and stir well to coat the chicken with the spices and onion mixture.

Step 9

Pour in the water and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Cover the pan and let it cook for about 15-20 minutes, until the chicken is fully cooked.

Step 10

In a small bowl, whisk the low-fat yogurt until smooth. Gradually add the yogurt to the curry, stirring continuously to prevent curdling.

Step 11

Season the curry with salt and let it simmer for another 5 minutes to blend the flavors.

Step 12

Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.

Step 13

Serve hot with steamed rice or your choice of bread.
