Delicious Chicken🐓with Capsicum🫑

Hello, beautiful Hivers! I hope you are fine and healthy wherever you are. Today I am going to share with you a very delicious and healthy recipe: chicken with capsicum. The ingredients that I have used for this recipe are simple, and I bought them from my local grocery store. Let's get started with our recipe for today.

Ingredients

Boneless, skinless chicken breast     500g, cut into small cubes

Capsicum         300g, cut into cubes 

Onion               100g, chopped

Tomatoes         100g, chopped

Ginger              30g, fine julienne

Garlic                30g, chopped

Fresh green chillies             10g, chopped

Salt                          ½ teaspoon/ to taste

Black pepper           ½ teaspoon/ to taste

Red chilli flakes       ¼ teaspoon

Turmeric                  ¼ teaspoon

Cumin seeds           ½ teaspoon

Cooking oil              4 tablespoons

Fresh coriander leaves          For garnish

Cooking Method

Place the cooking pot on medium heat. Add the cooking oil and the chopped onion. 

Sauté the onion until slightly golden in color.

When the onion turns a light golden color, add chopped ginger, chopped garlic, and cumin seeds. You can also use ginger/garlic paste if you like. Sauté the ginger, garlic, and cumin until fragrant. 

When the ginger, garlic, and cumin are fragrant, add tomatoes and chicken to the pot. Also add salt, black pepper, red chilli flakes, turmeric, and chopped green chillies, and mix the entire mixture in the pot well.

Keep cooking and stirring until the color of the chicken starts to change.

Once the color of the chicken starts to change, add the chopped capsicum and stir well. Put the lid on and reduce the heat to low. Cook the chicken and the capsicum on low heat for 15 minutes, stirring at 5-minute intervals. You can use a splash of water if the contents start to stick to the bottom of the pan during the cooking process. After 15 minutes of cooking, turn the heat off. 

Now the chicken with capsicum is ready. Garnish with the chopped fresh coriander and ginger.
