A basic chicken curry is comfort food for nonveg lovers but when we are on the way to losing weight, we avoid it as it has oil. But what if you can make it oil-free and cook it in lesser time? This recipe might be your answer.

How To Make Oil-Free Chicken Curry

Saute the spices and boil chopped onion, ginger and garlic to get rid of the raw smell.
Next, marinate the chicken in full fat thick yogurt for a good gravy.
Add the spices and the onion, ginger and garlic and leave it for 2 hours.
Post marination, caramelise the chicken where you saute the pieces on medium high heat for a few minutes until brown spots appear.
Now, add the marination to the pan and cook until the gravy thickens.
