Achari Chicken

Achari Chicken (Achari Murgh)

Achari Chicken (aka Achari Murgh) is a fabulous Indian recipe that’s made with tomatoes, achari masala and yoghurt. It’s perfect served with roti, rice or even poori (yum!), with a side of Indian Kachumber Salad.

This chicken has to be one of my favourite recipes. I don’t make it very often, I don’t know why since it’s so simple and easy. But every time I make it, I think to myself, damn this really is a good recipe. Hehe.

This North Indian curry (also sometimes known as pickled chicken curry) has my heart, and today I’m telling you that you must try this curry ASAP. It’s also one of the easier curries out there. At least I think so. More chicken recipes

Is Achari Chicken Spicy?

Achari Murgh isn’t spicy as such, but the flavour profile is the same as Indian pickle or achar. Depending on your preference, you can reduce or increase the amount of achar gosht masala you add in the recipe.

What You Need for Achari Murgh

  • Chicken (I use boneless chicken)
  • Ginger garlic paste (use store-bought or try my recipe for ginger garlic paste that you can store in the fridge)
  • Tomatoes (I use fresh tomatoes that I puree in the blender before adding to the recipe)
  • Achar Gosht Masala (I use Shan Masala and totally ignore the recipe instructions on the box)
  • Chopped coriander
  • And a little bit of julienned ginger (optional)

The stage was about to be set for Hrithik Roshan and Saif Ali Khan’s ‘Vikram Vedha’ in Mumbai’s Film City. The material had reached. The artisans had been hired. But the lights have now been dimmed. Madhavan and Vijay Sethupathi’s hit movie Vikram Vedha’s Hindi remake will not go on floors by mid-July as per the original plan. The new delta virus of COVID has sent shudders down many spines and many films which were being laid out on an expansive scale have been either held back or shifted their shoots abroad. The first schedule of this Hrithik-Saif movie will now be shot abroad. A source says, “The Mumbai schedule will be done but later.” Adds the source, “It’s a call that was taken yesterday. It wasn’t an easy call to take, no doubt, but the fact that it’s going to be a costly set made the makers take the safer route rather than be sorry later.” When contacted, General Secretary of FWICE (Federation of Western India Cine Employees), Ashok Dubey, confirmed that the makers of ‘V
