Welcome to Simran Gallery. Today, we're making the viral Dubai Iffa Chicken.

Take 250 grams of yogurt and add 1/2 tablespoon of turmeric powder, 1 tablespoon of roasted red chili powder, 1/2 tablespoon of black pepper powder, 1 tablespoon of garam masala powder, salt to taste, and 2 tablespoons of Kashmiri red chili powder.

Add the juice of 1/2 lemon and 1 tablespoon of ginger garlic paste. Mix everything well.

Add chicken to the mixture. You can cut it into smaller pieces, but I used whole leg pieces with deep cuts.

Marinate the chicken well with the mixture and let it sit for at least 1 hour. I marinated it for 4 to 5 hours.

In a pan, add a little oil and Amul butter to enhance the taste. Add the marinated chicken pieces. I have 3 leg pieces, so I couldn't fit them all in one pan. I cooked two in one pan and one in another.

Cook the chicken on high flame for 2 minutes on one side, then flip it over. Lower the flame and continue cooking until the chicken is fully cooked and the water is absorbed.

While the chicken is cooking, prepare the paste. Take 3 boiled eggs and use only the whites. Add 2 cheese cubes, a little sugar, salt to taste, Amul cheese cream, a little milk, and 6-7 garlic cloves. Blend everything into a paste.

Once the chicken is cooked, 2-3 minutes before turning off the flame, spread the prepared paste over the chicken. Garnish with coriander leaves.

After adding the paste, cook for an additional 2-3 minutes before turning off the flame.
