Instructions
Step 1
Let's start by cleaning and washing the chicken well. Pat dry and add to bowl along with ginger garlic paste, lemon juice and salt. Mix well and set aside for an hour.

While the chicken is marinating let's make the masala powder. Dry roast (hi broil 2-3 min) coriander seeds, shahi jeera, dried red chillies, black pepper, cloves, cashew nuts, fennel seeds n poppy seeds. Allow to cool for a bit and grind the whole spices to powder.

Take a heavy bottomed pan, add ghee,
Garlic, ginger and blended onions until pink. Add bay leaves and cardamom.

Step 7
Now add 1 cup water, give a good mix. Cover the pan and let the chicken cook until tender and cooked through and the gravy with desired consistency is achieved.
