Chicken Shorba Recipe
The green ground paste – With coriander (cilantro) leaves as the the key ingredient, the ground paste is a combination of garlic, ginger, green chilies, and of course, coriander or cilantro leaves. Chicken soup or shorba – Traditionally, shorba is made with bone-in chicken, but I have opted for boneless chicken thighs in this recipe. Sauté chicken in a little oil with onions until the pieces get a light brown color on all sides. Stir fry with a little cinnamon and cardamom. Next up, cook chicken with the green sauce, chicken broth (stock) and water. Once the chicken pieces are cooked through, you can squeeze in fresh lemon juice. Absolutely delicious!
