Step 1
Heat some oil in a large pan over medium-low heat. Add the whole spices and let them sizzle for about a minute. Then toss in the chopped onions and cook until they start to soften, about 1-2 minutes.

Stir in the ginger-garlic paste and cook for another minute. Once the onions begin to brown, add the chicken pieces. Keep stirring for 5-7 minutes until the chicken turns white. Season with salt and mix well.
