Note:

1. The chicken needs to be marinated properly and it needs to rest at least for 15-20mins.
2. Don’t fry the chicken too much just till it has cooked because we need to cook it with the onions as well.
3. You can cook the dry spices while frying the chicken but frying it separately will retain the taste better.
4. Adding butter enhances the taste to a different level.
