Lemony Chicken With Fresh Coriander Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oil and brown the chicken, you might have to do that in batches, remove from the pan with a slotted spoon and set aside.
• Add the garlic to the same oil, when that starts to brown lower the heat to medium and add the ginger/water mix, fry this for 1 minute Then add: coriander, chili, cayenne, cumin, coriander, turmeric and salt, cook for another minute and mix well.
• Return the chicken to the pan, with the accumulated juices, add the water and the lemon juice.
• Stir, bring to the boil, and then cover and simmer on a low heat for 15 minutes, depending what chicken meat is used.
• When cooked and you find the sauce too thin, uncover the pot and reduce the sauce by using some higher heat.

Steps:

• Put the ginger and 1/4 cup water into a blender and blend into a paste. Set aside.
• Place the oil in a wide, heavy, preferably nonstick pot over medium-high heat. When hot, add as many chicken pieces as fit in a single layer and brown on both sides. Remove them and continue until all the chicken is browned.
• Add the garlic to the hot oil. As soon as it turns medium brown, turn down the heat to medium and pour in the ginger paste. Stir and fry for a minute. Add the fresh coriander, chili, cayenne, cumin, coriander seeds, turmeric and salt. Cook, stirring, for a minute. Add the chicken pieces as well as any juices that have accumulated. Add 2/3 cup water to the pot and the lemon juice. Stir and bring to a boil. Cover tightly, turn heat to low and cook for 15 minutes. Turn the chicken pieces over. Cover and cook for 10 to 15 minutes more, until chicken is cooked through.
• Remove the chicken. If the sauce is too thin, boil some of the liquid away over a higher heat. Serve with basmati rice.

Steps:

• Put the ginger and 1/4 cups water into a blender or processor. Blend until you have a paste; set aside.
• Note: The original recipe doesn't call for seasoning the chicken prior to browning, but I prefer the way the salt and pepper penetrates at this level. Also, I cut the breasts in half. Proceede by putting the oil in a wide, heavy pan over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, put in as many chicken pieces as the pan will hold in a single layer and brown on both sides. It's not necessary to deeply brown because of the additional cook time later and they may become dry. Remove the chicken pieces with a slotted spoon and put them in a bowl. Sear all the chicken pieces this way.
• Add the garlic to the hot oil. As soon as the pieces turn a medium-brown color, turn heat to medium and pour in the ginger paste. Stir-fry it for a minute. Add the fresh coriander, jalapeno, cayenne, cumin, coriander, turmeric and salt. Stir and cook for a minute.
• Put in all the chicken pieces as well as any liquid that might have accumulated in the chicken bowl. Add 2/3 cup water and the lemon juice. Stir and bring to a boil. Cover tightly, turn heat to low and cook for 15 minutes.
• Turn the chicken pieces over. Cover again and cook another 10 to 15 minutes or until the chicken is tender. If the sauce is too thin, uncover the pan and boil some of it away over a slightly higher heat.
• Serve with basmati rice.

Steps:

• Combine the garlic with the yogurt and pour over the chicken, leave to marinate over night.
• Heat the oil in a pot and saute the onions until golden brown then remove the onion from the pot, set aside
• Fry the coriander, mixed spice, black pepper and turmeric for about 30 seconds.
• Add chicken and the yogurt and fry the chicken for 5 minutes over medium heat
