    +−About this dish

    The beauty of this Tamarind Chicken is both its sharp and piquant flavor and its simplicity. A potent tamarind-and-masala marinade renders a richly flavored, juicy, tangy, and tender chicken in mere minutes, making it equally suited for a weeknight meal or a dinner party. Pair with rice/ roti
