Are you craving a hearty and flavourful meal that’s easy to make? Look no further than Chicken Keema Paratha. This popular Indian dish combines minced chicken with aromatic spices, stuffed into a whole wheat flatbread, and cooked to perfection. Whether you’re a professional or a beginner in the kitchen, this recipe is sure to impress everyone. This recipe is by Aarthi Satheesh.
The combination of minced Chicken (Keema) cooked with aromatic spices offers a burst of flavours that tantalise the taste buds. Chicken is a good source of lean protein, making these parathas a nutritious meal option. Additionally, the paratha dough can be made with whole wheat flour, adding fibre to your diet. They make for a filling one-dish meal that is great for every non-veg lover. Let’s take a look into how to make this delicious dish step by step:
1. In a mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour and salt. Gradually add water and knead into a smooth dough. Set aside for 15-20 minutes.
2. Now prepare the Chicken Keema filling. Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add chopped onions, ginger-garlic paste, and green chilies to it. Saute for another minute. Now add the chopped tomatoes and cook until they turn soft.
3. Slowly add in the minced chicken and cook. Add coriander powder, cumin powder, turmeric powder, garam masala, and salt. Mix everything well and cook for a few more minutes. Add chopped fresh coriander leaves for extra flavour. Once done, let the filling cool.
4. Now divide the dough into equal-sized balls. Roll out each ball into a small circle. Place a spoonful of the chicken keema filling in the centre. Bring the edges of the dough together to enclose the filling and pinch to seal. Now flatten the stuffed dough ball with your hands.
5. Roll out the stuffed dough ball into a paratha, dusting it with flour if needed to prevent sticking. Heat a tawa or frying pan over medium heat. Place the rolled paratha on the hot tawa.
6. Cook until brown spots appear on one side, then flip and cook the other side until golden brown, brushing with oil as needed. Repeat the process with the remaining dough and filling.
7. Once cooked, remove the Chicken Keema Paratha from the tawa and serve it hot with a bowl of curd.
