Easy Steps To Prepare Delicious Mughlai Chicken Handi At Home

Mughlai chicken is a recipe to save for specific celebrations, not because it takes much longer to prepare or has a lot of ingredients, but because it is rich and delicious. The mild, thick creaminess of the dish is largely influenced by Central Asian food and culinary traditions, which arrived in India during the reign of the famed Mughal dynasty. Serve with naan, parathas, rice, or roasted potatoes for a satisfying and delicious supper that is so rich that it can be divided into multiple portions.
