Tips for Spicy Indian Garlic Ginger Chicken

The tomato base should look glossy and thick, with no watery pool around the chicken.
Cut the chicken into evenly sized pieces so they finish cooking at the same time.
Keep the heat moderate once the tomatoes are soft; scorching the garlic can make the sauce taste bitter.

Drink pairing

A crisp, aromatic white like Sauvignon Blanc
Its bright acidity and herbal notes complement the ginger, garlic, and tomato while refreshing the palate alongside the spice.
