I'm currently doing Keto diet and so far it has been going great and I have posted few recipes inspired by it . This is one of them.
I was meant to make chicken fry 😅and slow cooked the chicken on the stove and discovered this amazing flavorful dish. Unfortunately, I don't have a crockpot, I made this on my regular stove and deep bottomed pot
If you are not used to Indian cooking, this recipe may seems big lengthy, but trust me it's totally worth it.
So far, this has been the best Indian chicken curry I have cooked < quoted by me and my husband as well>😆😆😆

If you are not on keto diet, you can enjoy with Naan or any kind of flat bread. This is what my husband had
