My spicy gravy chicken recipe is back and its here to stay! It’s one heck of a dish, this recipe that is so near and dear to my heart, when I was dating my husband I met so many of his family members that told me about his uncles gravy chicken recipe. Fast forward to one long weekend when I finally met him, before he could even hug me he told me that he’s making gravy chicken just for me because I\u2019ve never had it before. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not only did I lick my bowl, but I ate 3rds of this gravy chicken!! Till this very day I think about Kal\u2019s chicken gravy all the time. I still have memories of him making this delicious chicken every time we would get together. You know its crazy recipe because no matter where we would go, he would come prepared with his big pot, utensils, spices and find a local halal butcher to get his meats!! And while he’s making the chicken, he would play beer pong with us and make us take shots, trust me if you don’t know of any gujunrati uncle that sounds similar to mine, then you\u2019re missing out!! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Notes<\/h3>
            \n
          • Marinate the chicken the day before, the longer it marinates the better. I usually marinate my chicken the day before in a ziplock bag(easy clean up and doesn’t spill or smell in the fridge.)<\/li>\n
          • I used chicken breast, but you can use bone in chicken thighs or legs for this recipe and it will come out amazing!!\u00a0<\/li>\n
          • You can also make the gravy the day before and store it in an airtight container, cook the chicken the day and add it into the gravy.<\/li>\n
          • Replace the chicken with paneer or tofu for a vegetarian\/vegan dish.<\/li>\n
          • If you use fresh tomatoes, add a little brown sugar to balance out the taste.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
