* Step 2
Marinate the chicken with turmeric powder, chilli powder, salt,ginger garlic paste, 1tsp oil and then yogurt.You can also add a tsp of garam masala powder(optional).Yogurt is used to make the chicken tender.
* Step 3
Marinate the chicken well & set it aside for a while.

* Step 5
Add onions and fry until they become lightly golden brown.
