Ingredients
Produce
- 1/2 cup Zucchini chopped
- 1/2 cup Vegetables chopped, mixed
Spices and Flavorings
- 1/2 tsp Cumin Seeds
- 1/2 tsp Herbs mixed
- 1/2 tsp Sabji Masala
- 1/2 tsp Pepper black, crushed
- Salt to taste
Oil
- 1 tbsp Mustard Oil
- 1-2 Chillies dried, red
Instructions
- Heat the mustard oil in a pan over medium heat. Adding mustard oil to a hot pan helps prevent sticking and infuses the dish with its distinctive flavor.
- Add the dried red chilies and cumin seeds to the hot oil. Let them sizzle for a few seconds until fragrant. This releases their aromatic oils and adds depth of flavor.
- Add the chopped mixed vegetables and zucchini to the pan. Stir well to coat them in the spiced oil.
- Season with salt and stir to combine. Sauté the vegetables for a few minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften.
- Add the mixed herbs, sabji masala, and crushed black pepper. Stir well to distribute the spices evenly.
- Continue to cook the vegetables until they are tender-crisp, but not mushy. This allows them to retain some of their texture and nutrients.
- Remove the pan from the heat and serve the stir-fry hot with chapati or paratha.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips
- For a richer flavor, consider using bone-in chicken thighs instead of boneless, skinless breasts.
- Adjust the spices to your liking. Add more chili powder for extra heat or a pinch of cumin for a smokier taste.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when browning the chicken. This will ensure the chicken cooks evenly and gets a nice crust.
Storage Instructions
- Store leftover chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
