• Boneless Chicken
• Tomato Puree
• Coriander leaves - chopped
• Dried fenugreek leaves or any other 
• Salt and Pepper

• Paprika
• Lemon Juice
• Olive oil 

Method:

1. Marinate chicken with all the ingredients for 30 mins or more
2. Heat oil in a pan, add the chicken and stir fry for a few mins (I added more tomato puree so did not add any water - you could use less puree and add very little water)
3. Cover with the lid and let it cook for about 15-20 mins on low heat 
4. You can serve it with roti or rice or just eat it by itself!
