hi shoba even i am a big fan of very dry chicken curry here is it how i do it the measurement is for 500 gms of chicken 500 gms chicken 2 2 medium sized onions 2 green chillies turmeric 1/4 teaspoon ginger garlic paste 1 1/2 tablespoon garam masala 1/2 teaspoon oil 3 tablespoons shan meat masala powder heat the oil fry the onion which is chopped into smaller pieces,add green chillies which are slit, add ginger garlic paste and suate for a minute you will know when it is done with the aromatic smell,mean time wash the chicken and press hard in between your hand so that when you add to the pan the chicken wont be with excess water,keep the flame in medium high add chicken and stay focused to stir it now and then so that it wont get burned dont close the lid,if you close the lid the chicken will cook in the steam which is built due to closing the lid and release all tye water from the chicken making it a bit gravy,add turmeris salt and chilli powder according to your taste,once you reaced the stage of chicken being cooked completely,add garam masala and shan meat masala powder according to your spicy ness garnish with coriander and serve. once you are done the curry actually looks very dry the oniongravy sticking only to pieces and you can see the oil as well, you can serve with rasam and rice or chapathi hope this helps

If you have a steamer, this is the best way to reheat any kind of meat.Heat the broth first then put the chicken in the steamer and microwave for only about 1 minute. This keeps the chicken from drying out further in the microwave. Let it sit for a couple of more minutes in the steamer,then enjoy.
chicken sukka ============ 1. marinate chicken with ginger garlic paste and yoghurt. 2, steam chicken( For US, its hard here... if india u dnt need to steam buy suguna) 3, drain water and fry them oil and with garam masala half tsp spoon, 2 tsp spoon chilli powder. 4. fry well and then add pepper powder. 5. after removing from heat garnish with coriander.
