Ingredients
Instructions
  1. In a glass bowl bowl take the chicken pieces . I suggest glass bowl as it will not react with the lime juice.I used a plastic bowl which was ok too.
  2. Add half of the yogurt, ginger and garlic paste, chilli paste, lime juices, coriander powder, half of the oil and salt to the chicken. I made a paste of ginger, garlic and chillies together is a blender
  3. Mix it well and keep for as long or as little you like. Mine was in fridge for few hours actually
  4. In big pan, add the remaining oil and heat it up. Add the sliced onion and fry till light golden brown
  5. Add the chicken pieces from the marinade and add to the pan. Fry them on medium high heat till the chicken pieces start to get light brown
  6. Add the marinade ( spice) along with the remaining yogurt to the pan. Stir to mix it well
  7. Add the lime leaves. Cover the pan and let it cook on medium high heat until chicken is cooked.
  8. Check the seasoning, add salt or sugar to your taste. Add the green chillies. Serve hot with plain rice
