PAKISTANI POTATO CHICKEN

I didn't put peppers at all, and left out the cilantro at the end. Subbed garlic cloves for garlic paste.



PAKISTANI POTATO CHICKEN

This is a slightly spicy Pakistani dish of chicken and
potatoes. Makes 6 to 7 servings.

----------
1 (4 pound) chicken, cut into pieces
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 tablespoons plain yogurt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 teaspoon minced fresh
ginger root
2 teaspoons garlic paste
salt to taste
1 green bell pepper, chopped
4 potatoes
1 tablespoon fresh chopped
cilantro, for garnish


Directions
1 In a large pot put chicken, with oil and yoghurt, over
medium heat. Stir together and add the cumin, red bell
peppers, ginger, garlic paste, salt and green bell peppers.
Stir all together, cover pot and simmer over low heat until
the oil separates.
2 Meanwhile, dice the potatoes into large chunks. When
the chicken looks cooked and is no longer pink inside
(after 20 to 30 minutes), add the potatoes and cook on low
heat until tender, adding a little water if necessary. When
chicken and potatoes are done, turn off heat. Garnish with
chopped cilantro and serve. Enjoy!
