This chicken recipe is easy to cook. You can serve it with naan, roti, and paratha. The aroma of fresh mint and coriander leaves makes this hariyali chicken different from other chicken recipes. You can prepare this recipe with boneless chicken and one with bones.
I have made this recipe with boneless chicken. There is no difference in the taste as both are very juicy and soft. I highly recommend trying this recipe if you’re a non-vegetarian food enthusiast.
It offers a unique twist compared to the usual chicken dishes prepared with gravy in our homes. I am confident that you will thoroughly enjoy this delightful cooking experience.
Chicken Haryali gets its name from the Hindi word “Hara,” which means green. The dish gets its vibrant green color from the generous use of fresh green herbs and spinach. A mixture of yogurt, ginger, garlic, and several other spices is prepared to get more flavor and tenderize the chicken
You can serve chicken hariyali with steamed rice, naan bread, or roti. This dish is suitable for a main course. This dish is a favorite option for special events and occasions because of its fresh, green flavors.
Lastly, it is a treat for all those who love chicken and Indian food. You should not miss out on this recipe. Chicken Haryali is worth a try and easy to cook chicken recipe.
