Chicken Do Pyaja
$20.00
“Chicken Do Pyaza is a flavorful North Indian dish that literally means “chicken with double onions.” The dish is named for its generous use of onions, added at two different stages of cooking—first finely chopped to form the base of the curry, and later in larger chunks or slices to add texture and a mild sweetness.
The chicken is cooked in a rich, semi-dry gravy made with tomatoes, garlic, ginger, and a blend of traditional Indian spices like cumin, coriander, turmeric, and garam masala. The layered addition of onions gives the curry depth and a slightly caramelized flavor, balancing the heat and acidity of the spices and tomatoes.
Often garnished with fresh coriander and sometimes a squeeze of lemon, Chicken Do Pyaza is best enjoyed with naan, roti, or jeera rice. It’s a beloved dish in Mughlai and Punjabi cuisine, known for its bold taste and hearty appeal.”
