Homemade Spicy Chicken Pathia

This British Indian Restaurant inspired Chicken Pathia is a lip-smacking tangy curry with plenty of heat.
There’s tang coming from the tamarind, lemon juice, passata and tomato puree, so we need sugar to balance it out, and then of course we have the heat from the chilli powder and those fresh chillies, its so tasty!
Free printable Chicken Pathia recipe is available on our site: www.kitchensanctuary.com/chic...
Ingredients:
1 large onion - peeled and roughly chopped
2 cloves garlic - peeled
2 tsp minced ginger
3 tbsp ghee or vegetable oil
3 chicken breasts - chopped into bitesize chunks (this is about 525g or 18.5oz)
½ tsp ground cinnamon
2 tbsp medium curry powder (go with hot if you like your curry really hot)
1/2 tsp hot chilli powder
1 tsp paprika
¼ tsp ground fenugreek
1/2 tsp tamarind paste
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp sugar
¾ tsp salt
14 oz (400ml) passata
2 tbsp tomato puree (paste)
2 red chillies (red or green, left whole)
60ml Chicken Stock
Instructions:
• Add the onion, garlic and ginger to a mini food processor and blend to a paste.
• Heat the ghee (or oil) in a large frying pan over a high heat. Add the onion mixture and fry for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until starting to brown at the edges.
• Add the chicken and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring often, until sealed.
• Turn the heat down to medium and add the cinnamon, curry powder, chilli powder, paprika, ground fenugreek and tamarind paste. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
• Add in the lemon juice, sugar, salt, passata, tomato puree and birdseye chillies. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 10 minutes.
• Serve with fresh coriander, a slice of lemon and boiled rice.

Another outstanding dish! 👏🏻 out of so many KZbin cooking channels that I follow this is No1. Every meal has been exceptional. I’ve shared the recipes with friends and all have agreed and praised the food. Keep them coming. Brilliant channel

[@littlenemo14]

Just literally made this now. Smells and tastes delicious. But I’m saving it for later tonight. Can’t wait to tuck in.

[@laurelwilliams41]

Well, I’ve never put tamarind in a curry before! This was delicious. Just hot enough for me without being too fiery. I just chopped the onion for the recipe as I couldn’t be bothered to mince it! Still tasted great. Will definitely be making again.

[@bobbarber6081]

Cooked this ace curry last night for the gang! Awesome! Really tasty and delicious! Many thanks guys, keep 'em, the recipes, coming!

[@lancekirkaldy8130]

Made this a second time, I put in less curry powder and the depth of flavour just poured out. This is a 9.5/10 for me. I added some mushrooms as well. Fantastic recipe Kitchen Sanctuary, take a bow! Fabulous

[@no-oneman.4140]

Made this last night. Absolutely delicious. It's my go to in an Indian Restaurant. Can't believe I made it myself . I used rapeseed oil as my supermarket didn't have ghee. I used tin of chopped tomatoes as I like the chunks. Bit confused over the chicken stock, 60ml seemed hardly worth it or is that me ? Will definitely be making this again and again, thank you.

[@tomhinton8891]

Love the videos because they’re quick and easy to follow, best of all they actually taste as good as they look. Tried the Chicken Pathia and amazed how good it turned out, even when a lousy cook like me did it.

[@1tinac]

If you add tomatoes paste right after dry spices and cook it will caramelize the natural sugars. Then add the other ingredients. The order for tomatoe paste is important. I am excited try this. Thinks for another great idea.

[@thewanderingwolves90]

Definitely my favourite cooking channel on KZbin because you are from the uk so I know I can get every ingredient you cook with which is a bonus half of these US cooks use ingredients we can't get in the uk so I'm overjoyed I've found this channel 😁

Do your family know how lucky they are to have such lovely meals served to them? I haven't had a bad one yet, so keep up the wonderful work, Nicky and Chris.

Aaaww thank you, so happy that you're enjoying the recipes.

[@helenweatherby1694]

I’ve yet to have a failure with Nicky’s recipes.

[@s10m0t10n]

@@helenweatherby1694 Neither have I, Helen. Nicky's clear explanations make them easy to follow, even for a mediocre cook like me.

[@lancekirkaldy8130]

Great recipe, I made this exactly as described, a couple of things to note. Written instructions state add in whole chillis whilst video states add chopped. 2 tablespoons of curry powder really makes this very hot, which is fine if that’s what you’re after but I’d put less in next time. Video shows salt going in with other Indian inspired herbs whilst written instructions suggest adding later. Tomato purée states 2 teaspoons worth whilst video shows 1 teaspoon. Having made these comments I’d strongly recommend this excellent recipe just maybe cut down on curry powder. Keep up the superb work KS

[@MrFuzzbomb]

Always order this my fave curry by far. 100% trying this. I always make the tuscan chicken you do. Really nice that 1 is. Thank you x

Add a hot chili into the mixer with the onions and garlic for fantastic results.

Im going to give a try, looks really lovely. BTW I like your non-stick frying pan, can you advise the brand? Thanks

[@Kitchensanctuary]

Thanks Rachel, Let us know if you do give it a try. Its a Le Creuset frying pan, its a bit of an investment but I love mine and it gets soo much use.

[@greenheron1567]

Rachel, if you’re looking for a more affordable option, I really like my T-Fal nonstick sautè pan.

[@spursp2321]

If u want best possible curries don't use non stick.

[@briegoudon3000]

Defintley looks tasty!! But I wouldn't say its british indian restaurant inspired as that's a whole different style. That would incorporate: - Spiced oil - Restraunt paste - Curry base - Pre-cooked chicken tika
