Lovely recipe, which reminded me of the time my family spent in Hyderabad, India. The only change I made was to substitute a dried Indian hot chile pepper for the jalape\u00f1os.

I made this recipe exactly following the recipe and really liked it. When I make it again, I will be sure my jalape\u00f1os are hot (rather than mild), and will add a touch of salt.

It\u2019s insane the number of adds and sometimes I cannot even go to the recipe because it sends me right to thousands off Disney ones. So, I click and you gain and you don\u2019t care about being honest. Awful choice. Note: in order to post my review, I had to sign to this web site and then, as a magic (Disney in my thoughts!!), I could see the whole recipe and then again, adds everywhere. Not really a good choice. <\/p>

It was very different from other chicken dishes I've made. I had no cardamom pods but it didn't seem to make much difference; I also added some crushed red pepper flakes to increase the heat for the guys. It was served over rice or cauliflower rice, but was also good to eat some pieces tucked up inside Naan bread. Low carb if you use cauliflower rice.","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":4,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2011-09-19","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"OliveBoomerang"},"reviewBody":"Not only was this really good and tasty, but it was also fun to make! It's the first Indian style dish I've ever made and it was quite tasty.
