Achari chicken is a flavorful and aromatic Indian dish that features tender pieces of chicken marinated and cooked in a mixture of pickling spices. The term “achari” is derived from the word “achar,” which means “pickle”. The dish is characterized by its tangy and spicy flavor profile, reminiscent of the flavors found in South Asian pickles. The chicken is typically marinated with a blend of spices such as mustard seeds, fenugreek, cumin, fennel, and various aromatic herbs. It is then cooked in a rich gravy made from tomatoes, onions, yogurt, and spices.
