Chicken masala is a flavorful Indian dish made by cooking chicken in a spiced tomato-onion gravy. The masala typically includes turmeric, cumin, coriander, chili powder, and garam masala, creating a rich, aromatic sauce. It can be prepared mildly or with extra heat, depending on taste. Served with rice or flatbreads, it’s a comforting, satisfying meal enjoyed across many regions.
