Time 30m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/4 cup ghee or any neutral oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 pound ground chicken
1 teaspoon ginger paste or freshly grated ginger
1 teaspoon garlic paste or freshly grated garlic
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1/2 teaspoon kashmiri red chile powder or other ground red chile
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
2 medium plum tomatoes, finely chopped
1 large green bell pepper, halved, seeded and thinly sliced about ¼-inch thick
3 fresh Thai green chiles, stems removed, chopped
3/4 teaspoon garam masala
2 to 3 tablespoon lemon juice (from about ½ lemon)
2 to 3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • In a medium (9-inch) pot or wok, heat ghee over medium-high until it has melted, about 30 to 45 seconds. Add onion and cook on medium, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 4 to 5 minutes.
