    Methi Chicken Recipe - Fenugreek Leaves Chicken Curry Recipe with step wise pictures.

    Super fragrant and tasty chicken dish made using methi leaves. This chicken dish taste great with rice, roti, phulka as well.

    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 from that so i made it almost immediately.

    This chicken dish is so easy to make, you dont need coconut or any other stuffs. If you use larger chicken pieces then it will be more tasty. I used small cut chicken because that what i had on hand.
