  Navayuga Chicken
Chicken - 1/4 k.g.
Red Onion - 1 large
Tomato ketchup - 1tsp.
Green chilli - 3
Red chilli powder - 1/2 tsp.
Saffron powder - 1 pinch
Garam masala powder - 1/2 tsp.

Preparation.

1. Take bone less pieces of the Chicken.
2. Cut them into medium sizes.
3. Add the masala powder and marinate it for 1/2 an hour.
4. In a thick pan, add the oil, next add 10 curry leaves, and slit green chilli.
5. Next add the roundly cut onion and saute for a whole minute. Followed by this add the marinated chicken. Add salt. Kept stirring and frying on low heat. The chicken would take around 20 mins. to cook completely. Next add the tomato ketchup and stir, let the chicken cook for 12 more minustes. (remember we are cooking without water, and on low flame!). Navayuga chicken is ready.

(Those who use ready made chicken masala. Beware, there are gravy masalas, kurma masalas, tandoori masalas. A small shift can completely ruin the taste. This chicken is a secret recipe of a restaurant I lately visited. Thankfully the owner shared, saying "madam this chicken recipe attracts customers!". It is very tasty.
