The ingredients are simple yet flavorful: chicken, garlic, ginger, red onions, chilies and tomato puree, all of which combine to create a truly tantalising experience for the taste buds. The fiery red color reflects the spiciness of the dish and is a reminder of the cultural influences that shape our cooking.

Preparing this delicious dish is fairly straightforward but no less rewarding. Begin by marinating the chicken in a mixture of garlic, ginger and some extra chili to create a robust base to the dish. Then, cook the chicken on the stove until the outside is caramelized and the inside is succulent.

Ingredients

– 2 tbs white vinegar
– 2 tbs extra virgin olive oil
