  • In an 8-quart saucepan on medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of butter, add chicken pieces and allow to brown on each side, about 10 minutes. Add water, cardamom pods and bay leaf, bring to boil, then reduce heat to low and allow to simmer for 30 minutes.
  • In a saute pan, add 1 tablespoon of butter on medium heat. Add onions, ginger/garlic paste and tomatoes, mix and allow to simmer for 2-3 minutes. Add tomato paste, zucchini, potatoes, chili, loomi and spices, cook for 5 minutes.
  • Add chicken into pan. Then strain broth (removing anything that’s not liquid) and add broth into pan carefully with chicken and vegetables. Bring to a full boil, reduce to low. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes.
  • In a serving bowl carefully add stew, then sprinkle with fresh cilantro.
  • Serve with white rice.
