Methi Malai Chicken Recipe

Methi Malai Chicken Recipe with step wise pictures.

Delicious and creamy methi malai chicken which taste great with rice or roti. This gravy goes perfect with pulao 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.
