PALAK CHICKEN/SPINACH CHICKEN/PALAKURA CHICKEN/PALAK SAAG

PALAK CHICKEN-I tried only 2-3 times in the before years..This time when I decided to cook this also strongly decided to take the pictures..I cooked this palak chicken in the evening and while taking pictures DH watching TV n another side he also waiting for dinner..HAHAHA!! So,sweet...I requested for some time then within 10-15 minutes i completed my clicks..Coming to the recipe,Chicken is very comforting food for non-veg lovers and it`s not high in price to buy also.People who love chicken must try this recipe..I think palak combinations works out best..2 days back I posted PALAK PANEER recipe which was a great hit in my kitchen..And,now this one..

See...making of palak chicken is not much difficult...Choosing the INGS is very Important,like for rich green colour you can add some cilantro leaves and spices like cardamom and cloves are must..Also,you can grind along with palak those spices,other wise you can grind them all separately..Some people like to marinate the chicken.So,you can go in that way also..Wash and marinate chicken with salt,turmeric and lemon juice for 15 mns.I skipped this marinating part.Because I used bone less and in small quantity.So,I cooked directly..Adding yogurt is also very Important step in this.But I used milk..Better to use green chillis instead of red chilli powder to retain the colour..Don`t use more garam masala and don`t skip coriander n cumin powders also.Finally serve with hot rotis..the best combination for ever..

According to my taste I cooked this and feeling happy to share this PALAK CHICKEN Recipe with you all..Hope you may like it..Try this next time and feel free to share your comments..
