To begin making the Chicken Changezi recipe, pat dry the chicken well after cleaning and prick it with a fork

This helps in getting the marinade deep inside chicken

To marinate the chicken , in a mixing bowl, combine the chicken along with dahi, ginger garlic paste, coriander powder, cumin powder, salt, turmeric powder, kasturi methi, kashmiri red chili powder, and marinade for 3-4 hours

Now bake chicken at 180°C for 30-40 minutes according to the size of the chicken pieces

Burn a small piece of charcoal on the direct flame

Place your chicken in a dish, once it is cooked

In the middle place a katori

Put the blazing charcoal in that katori and pour ghee over it

Cover and let it rest till all the smoke is infused in the chicken

This will give you a smoky flavor to chicken

Now, for the gravy, heat oil in a heavy bottomed pan

Add the ginger garlic and cook for about 30 seconds or till the raw smell disappears

Add tomato puree and masala gravy of onions

Cook until all comes together (about 2-3 minutes)

Add salt, red chilli powder and baked chicken

Now cook for 5-7 minutes so that gravy is well absorbed by chicken

In the end simply add the cream, mix and serve

Garnish with coriander leaves

Serve Chicken Changezi along with Garlic Naan or Jeera Rice and Pickled Onions for a soulful meal followed by a dessert of Malpua With Rose And Saffron Syrup Recipe
