Chicken Dopiaza

Chicken Dopiaza is a beloved Indian curry that stands out for its generous use of onions—both sautéed and caramelized—to deliver a rich, layered flavour profile. This medium-spiced dish combines tender chicken pieces with a savoury tomato-based gravy, infused with aromatic spices and the natural sweetness of onions. “Dopiaza” literally means “two onions,” a nod to the dual cooking method that adds both depth and subtle sweetness. The result is a well-balanced, hearty curry that appeals to both spice lovers and those who enjoy mellow flavour. Perfect with basmati rice or fresh naan, Chicken Dopiaza is a timeless comfort food classic.
