Murgh Chole (Chicken and Chickpea Curry)
Recipe by Zainab Shah | Total time: 45 minutes According to Punjabi lore, this heavily spiced chicken and chickpea dish was born during Emperor Shah Jahan’s imprisonment, when his cooks were challenged to create luxurious meals from humble chickpeas. Traditionally made with bone-in chicken, this streamlined version calls for boneless chicken thighs, browned then simmered with chickpeas in a complex tomato-onion base with ginger, garlic and green chiles. A few simple ingredients here result in a hearty, one-pot dish that delivers layers of flavor in just 30 minutes. The spritz of lemon and scatter of cilantro at the end add freshness. Serve it with rice, roti or by itself. Find more fast and delicious dinner recipes in our Weeknight 100. Was this email forwarded to you? You can sign up for Dinner Tonight here.
