You can cook this chicken in microwave and stove top both. I made it in microwave. You don’t need to fry or saute the spices or chicken at all. Just marinate the chicken and cook. Even no oil or butter required to make it. Easy isn’t it? If you want your chicken spicy add more green chilli or if you are making for kids reduce the amount of green chilli.

    Beautiful clicks, Sujataji!

    I love the refreshing aroma of coriander, so I’m loving the sound of this curry. It looks so flavourful and inviting. 🙂 I’m sure this would be a treat for non-vegetarians.

    This is the kind of chicken my son would love to make quick and easy. As for me I would love to replace the chicken with paneer and would have to cook on the stove top as I don’t have a microwave oven.

      Thank you so much Mayuri. Yes you can also make it on stove top. Paneer, tofu or mushroom will goes well with this masala paste.

    I read the title and ingredients twice, no oil chicken. Amazing. Generally in all chicken or rather non veg dishes oil is added so much. I am loving this recipe and surely trying for my family

Recipe Developer Behind The Blog

Hello there!

I am Sujata Roy. A homemaker, a blogger, a passionate cook, a recipe developer, a home baker, and lastly a foodie.

Experimenting in the kitchen is what I love and enjoy doing the most. Specially experimenting with vegetarian dishes and egg-less cakes and cookies is what interests me more.

My loved ones are fond of vegetarian cuisines, so I have them in my mind whenever I dish out a new recipe.

However, I do not limit my experimental cooking to vegetarian recipes only, non-vegetarian recipe ideas are also dished out. And you can also get many healthy recipes in this blog, including different types of baking ideas with healthy ingredients. So enjoy healthy foods without compromising on taste.

Thank you for visiting my blog. Happy Cooking!
