Saut\u00e9 till the onions change into a pale golden brown color. Now remove from the oil with a slotted spoon and keep on a paper towel to absorb the extra oil. Turn off heat.<\/li>\n<li>Grind the onions to a fine paste, adding very little or no water, in a mixer. Once done, remove and keep aside.<\/li>\n<li>Now grind the tomatoes, garlic and ginger together into a smooth paste. Remove and keep separately for later use.<\/li>\n<li>Re-heat the oil left over after frying the onions and add the onion paste. Saut\u00e9 for 2-3 minutes. Now add the tomato paste and all the powered spices, including the\u00a0garam masala. Mix well.<\/li>\n<li>Saut\u00e9 this masala (onion-tomato-spice mixture) for about 10 minutes until the oil separates from it.<\/li>\n<li>Now add chicken pieces to the masala and salt to taste. Stir properly to fully coat the chicken pieces and cook till the chicken is browned well.<\/li>\n<li>Add the fenugreek leaves and half a cup of water to the pan. Mix well, simmer the heat and cover the pan. Keep stirring regularly to avoid the masala getting stuck to the bottom of the pan. Also keep adding water\u00a0 if the masala gets too dry. The dish should have gravy of thickness when done.<\/li>\n<li>Serve hot accompanied with hot chapatis, naan or plain boiled rice.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Nutrient Value<\/strong><\/h2>\n<table border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"2\" width=\"529\">Amount Per Serving<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"2\" width=\"529\">Serving \u2013 1<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"259\">Calories<\/td>\n<td width=\"269\">1,942.7<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"259\">Total Fat<\/td>\n<td width=\"269\">98.4 g<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"259\">Saturated Fat<\/td>\n<td width=\"269\">17.9\u00a0g<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"259\">Polyunsaturated Fat<\/td>\n<td width=\"269\">15.5\u00a0g<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"259\">Monounsaturated Fat<\/td>\n<td width=\"269\">54.5\u00a0g<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"259\">Cholesterol<\/td>\n<td width=\"269\">830.0\u00a0mg<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"259\">Sodium<\/td>\n<td width=\"269\">939.5\u00a0mg<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"259\">Potassium<\/td>\n<td width=\"269\">3,874.8\u00a0mg<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"259\">Total Carbohydrate<\/td>\n<td width=\"269\">56.9\u00a0g<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"259\">Dietary Fiber<\/td>\n<td width=\"269\">15.5\u00a0g<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"259\">Sugars<\/td>\n<td width=\"269\">0.6\u00a0g<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"259\">Protein<\/td>\n<td width=\"269\">206.3\u00a0g<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A nutritious and delicious chicken curry The ever-popular of chicken combines with the twist of fenugreek to create a tantalizing and wholesome recipe to treat your taste buds.
