A super delicious chicken dish that not only tastes really delicious. But is very easy to make too. This goes great with rice, rasam or curd rice.
When I was looking for dinner inspiration online, I came across a picture of a spicy chicken curry served with some naan. I got so inspired by that so I made it almost immediately.
