Murgh Kali Mirch

Bored of the same old chicken curry recipe every week? With this new black pepper chicken curry recipe, you can switch up the taste and flavour to help keep everyone happy. This chicken kali mirch curry is a black pepper chicken curry.

A luscious rich chicken soaked in a creamy gravy masala. An ideal twist on a chicken curry. This kali mirch chicken curry is easy to prepare with simple pantry spices, perfect if you have never cooked a curry before. Inviting and irresistible, succulent chicken pieces in a thick gravy sauce pair amazingly with homemade naan bread.

Now if you’re Pakistani or Indian then you probably have a very high tolerance for spice. I absolutely love my spice and I like to spice everything up from the classic recipes of chicken pasta to Mexican quesadillas. A lot of my curries use a load of spice, but this black pepper chicken curry is here to change that.

This murgh kali mirch curry is my take on how to take some black pepper chicken and turn it into a curry. It’s not a common curry recipe, but it is one of my favourites because it is so simple to make.

If you’re not the biggest fan of spice, then this chicken curry is for you. I personally love it. Even without the addition of spices, this chicken curry recipe tastes delicious. The onion masala gravy tastes so good as well. You could add some tomatoes as well, but it’s up to you. This black pepper chicken curry, otherwise known as kali mirch murgh, is perfect for curry lovers that want a little bit less spice in their life.
