🛒 Ingredients

✓ 300g skinless chicken breast, cubed
✓ 2 tsp ghee
✓ 1 tbsp olive oil spray
✓ 1/2 medium onion, finely diced
✓ 2 cloves garlic, minced
✓ 1 tsp ginger-garlic paste
✓ 1 sheet (90g) reduced-fat puff pastry, thawed
✓ 1 egg white, beaten (for egg wash)
✓ 3/4 cup Greek yogurt (0% fat)
✓ 1/4 cup unsalted chicken broth
✓ 2 tbsp tomato paste
✓ 1 tsp garam masala
✓ 1/2 tsp kasuri methi (dried fenugreek leaves)
✓ 1/4 tsp red chili powder
✓ 1/4 tsp turmeric
✓ Salt and black pepper to taste

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Brown the chicken: Heat ghee in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken cubes 4–5 minutes until golden on two sides. Transfer to a plate; do not cook through.

2. Build the aromatic base: In the same skillet, spray olive oil and sauté diced onion for 2 minutes until softened. Add garlic and ginger-garlic paste, cook 1 minute until fragrant.

3. Bloom the spices: Add garam masala, turmeric, and chili powder to the onion mixture. Stir constantly for 30 seconds to release essential oils and deepen flavors.

4. Create the sauce: Whisk together Greek yogurt, broth, and tomato paste in a small bowl until smooth. Pour into the skillet and stir to combine with spices.

5. Simmer the filling: Return chicken to the skillet. Add kasuri methi, salt, and pepper. Simmer 8–10 minutes on low heat, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens and coats chicken. Divide filling between two 250ml ramekins or pie dishes; cool 5 minutes.

6. Top with pastry: Cut the puff pastry sheet into two equal rectangles. Place one piece over each ramekin, pressing edges gently to seal. Brush with beaten egg white for golden finish.

7. Bake until golden: Place ramekins on a baking tray. Bake at 200°C (400°F) for 18–22 minutes until puff pastry is puffed and deep golden brown. Cool 3 minutes before serving.
