Analyzing cooking steps...
For the best flavor, marinate the chicken overnight in the refrigerator, or for at least 20-30 minutes if time is short.
Using chicken thighs ensures the meat remains succulent and moist, even after grilling.
Kashmiri chili powder is crucial for achieving the vibrant red color and a smoky, moderate heat.
When grilling the chicken, aim for nice charred edges while keeping the meat tender and moist inside. Basting and turning regularly helps achieve this.
When sautéing onions for the gravy, do not let them brown; they should only soften to contribute a delicate sweetness.
After adding the grilled chicken to the gravy, allow it to simmer briefly so the chicken can soak in all the rich flavors of the sauce.
