Directions
- 1
Heat the olive oil in a wide, deep pan over medium heat. Add the chicken pieces and brown on all sides for 5–7 minutes until golden.
- 2
Add the dried onion flakes and minced garlic around the chicken. Stir and cook for 2 minutes until fragrant.
- 3
Sprinkle the curry powder and white pepper evenly over the chicken, tossing well to coat each piece.
- 4
Pour in the vinegar and warm water. Season with salt, cover the pan, and simmer over medium heat for 30 minutes, turning the chicken halfway through.
- 5
Check for doneness — the meat should pull away from the bone easily and the sauce should be slightly thickened. Adjust seasoning and serve hot.
💡 Chef's Tip
Serve with steamed basmati rice or warm naan bread to soak up the delicious curry sauce. For deeper flavor, marinate the chicken with the spices and garlic for 1 hour in the fridge before cooking.
