Add in the chicken and mix well until everything is coated evenly. Cover it for 5-7 minutes on low flame and let the chicken cook and release its water. If your chicken starts to touch at the bottom of the pan, add ½ cup water. Once you open the Kadhai, if there is still any water in the Kadhai, increase the flame to high and reduce all the water. Keep it aside.
