*Start with marinating the chicken . Take a bowl put CURD , LEMON JUICE , RED CHILI POWDER , SALT , GARAM MASALA [ whole spice powder] as per quantity mentioned above & mix it well .

* Add to this the chicken pieces & coat the chicken very well & leave for 2 hours [ if you are in hurry marinate atleast for 1/2 hour ].

*If you have OVEN or MICROWAVE roast your chicken in that by brushing some oil . But now a days AIR FRIER is quite popular so you can also use that to roast your marinated chicken .

*If you do not have any of these appliance take a pan & simply roast your chicken . Want to have a smoky flavour put a small bowl in the middle & put in it a burning charcoal piece & drizzle 3-4 drops of oil & put the lid for 5 minutes .

**Time to cook gravy in a pan take 500 gm of tomatoes roughly chopped , 1 onion , 2 piece of garlic & boil for 30 minute & after it grind it to make thick paste . Boiling is not necessary you can directly grind it but believe me the real taste will come up after boiling .

*After making puree take it in pan & add to it the ROASTED CHICKEN  , BUTTER , CREAM , 

GREEN CHILI quantity mentioned above & mix it very well . You can add some SALT to it 

according to taste .
