No Oil Chicken

To achieve the best flavor and tenderness in your No Oil Chicken, start by preparing a paste of onion and garlic. Then, mix this paste with the chicken and other ingredients in a kadhai. Cook on high flame for the first 5 minutes to seal in the juices, then reduce the heat and simmer on low flame for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking.

Yes, No Oil Chicken is an excellent choice for a low-fat diet. This recipe uses yogurt and spices instead of oil, making it a healthier option while still being flavorful. It's perfect for those looking to reduce their fat intake without sacrificing taste.

If you don't have curd (yogurt) on hand, you can substitute it with Greek yogurt for a thicker consistency or even buttermilk for a tangy flavor. Alternatively, a dairy-free yogurt made from almond or coconut can also work well for a dairy-free version.

To store leftover No Oil Chicken, let it cool to room temperature, then transfer it to an airtight container. It can be refrigerated for up to 3-4 days. For longer storage, consider freezing it, where it can last for up to 2-3 months. Just make sure to reheat it thoroughly before serving.

No Oil Chicken pairs wonderfully with a variety of side dishes. Consider serving it with steamed rice, quinoa, or whole grain naan for a complete meal. You can also add a fresh salad or roasted vegetables to complement the flavors and add some crunch.
