SRI LANKAN CURRY - CHICKEN

Ingredients

300 grams boneless skinless chicken breasts

2 tablespoons white vinegar

1 teaspoon tamarind juice

� cup Madras curry powder

1 tablespoon salt, or to taste

1 teaspoon ground black pepper

2 tablespoons coconut oil

1 red onion, sliced

8 nos green cardamom pods

6 nos whole cloves

12 nos curry leaves

1 teaspoon fresh ginger

2 inch cinnamon stick, broken in half

Step 1: Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces. Combine the vinegar, tamarind juice, 1/4 cup curry powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Add chicken and toss to coat.
