Afghan Chicken Recipe. Super creamy and a different style of the recipe for cooking chicken. This chicken dish goes great with rice, roti, or naan.
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.
This chicken dish is so easy to make, you don't need onions, tomatoes, and other stuff. If you use larger chicken pieces then it will be tastier. I used small cut chicken because of what I had on hand.
