Chicken is delicious as well as nutritious. Moreover chicken is very soft and almost fatless. You can prepare various preparations with chicken that can go very well with bread or rice.

Yogurt helps to make the chicken soft and it also supply a good amount of calcium in the preparation. To make the preparation you will need some things that are easily available in the market.

Ingredients:
½ Kg chicken ( breast portion)
½ Kg yogurt
2 big potatoes
Olive oil 2tablespoon
Garlic 2 cloves
Ginger ½ inch
Rosemary, oregano and thyme
Black pepper
Salt
Water

Preparation:

Cut the chicken breast into small square pieces. Check that they are totally boneless. Wash chicken and keep them aside to strain the water. Peel and cut potato into small cubes. Mince garlic.

Crush ginger. Finely chop the leaves of rosemary. Chop one tablespoon thyme and oregano. Beat the yogurt very well and in the time of beating add pinch of salt and black pepper. Marinate chicken pieces in the yogurt for an hour.

Process:

After the marinating time is over, start cooking. Heat olive oil in a pan and add minced garlic. Keep the flame low. Stir garlic to fry it. After that add crushed ginger. Fry it also. Then add cubed potato and keep stirring for 5 minutes.  After that add chicken with the yogurt.

Stir the whole things continuously so that the spices do not get stuck at the bottom of the pan.  Add crushed fresh rosemary and chopped oregano and thyme in the preparation. Add salt to taste. Keep the lid on till potato and the chicken pieces become tender.

When the gravy starts to thicken and you find the consistency you want, remove it from the oven. Serve them hot with steamed rice or fresh bread. You can make the same preparation also with lamb or mutton. Lamb is soft but mutton is comparatively stiffer as it is from older sheep.

You have to increase the marinating time if you want to cook lamb or mutton. It is better to use pressure cooker to make the mutton tender. Instead of rosemary, oregano and thyme you can also use cinnamon, cardamom and clove to get different flavor.
