Ingredients:
1 2 3-pound chickens, cut into
Instructions:
: serving-size pieces, --
: skinned
10 TB vegetable oil
6 c thinly sliced onions
2 TB finely chopped garlic
3 TB finely chopped ginger
2 cinnamon sticks
8 cardamom pods
1 TB turmeric
1 ts cayenne
2 c canned crushed tomatoes
1 TB kosher salt
1 TB ground roasted cumin seeds
: or ground cumin
4 TB chopped cilantro leaves
In a large heavy-bottomed pan, preferably with a nonstick surface,
heat 2 tablespoons oil over high heat. When oil is very hot add
chicken, a few pieces at a time, and sear until browned on all sides,
about 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon remove chicken to a plate and
continue until all pieces are browned.
Add remaining oil and onions to pan, reduce heat to medium-high and
fry 30 minutes until light brown, stirring constantly to prevent
burning. Add garlic and ginger and fry 5 minutes. Add cinnamon and
cardamom and fry 2 minutes, until spices are puffed and beginning to
brown. Add turmeric and cayenne and stir rapidly 15 seconds. Return
chicken to pan and stir in tomatoes, salt and 2 cups boiling water.
Reduce heat to a simmer, cover and cook about 45 minutes, until
chicken is tender and gravy has thickened. Check frequently, and add
a little water if sauce is evaporating too quickly. Turn off heat and
let dish rest, covered at least 1 hour, preferably 2. When ready to
serve, reheat, fold in cumin and cilantro, and adjust seasonings if
needed.

Chicken is ideal
for weight loss
and dieting
Healthy eating is far better than strict dieting, and weight loss achieved by a change of lifestyle lasts far longer than 'faddy' diets that are difficult to adopt for long periods.
Cooking more low fat chicken can enable you to lose weight gradually as part of a a controlled and healthy diet.
"Stupidity is the devil. Look in the eye of a chicken and you'll know. It's the most horrifying, cannibalistic, and nightmarish creature in this world." - Werner Herzog
