Indian Style Chicken with Yogurt with step by step photos. This is another recipe of my Mom which I call as Indian Style Chicken with Yogurt. Also this is simple yet outstanding curry. The taste of curry is amazing and its finger licking good. Dip bread and eat or eat with steamed rice. The chicken curry was so tasty and mouthwatering the taste is still lingering on my taste buds. The yogurt gives a great flavor along with other Indian spices its heaven.
The recipe is instant and there is no complication. No marination required, no difficult process. You can easily make when uninvited guests or people land in your house. Its done in short span of time and your guests would always remember you for that.
Mostly all Chicken Curries goes well with Naan, Rotis and Rice. Let me not forget even Breads or Pav tastes well with curries. So when you make chicken curries you really don’t have to worry so much about accompaniments. You can club curry with Bread / Pav or Rice.
