# Directions:
01 - Heat oil or ghee in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and sauté until soft and golden, approximately 5 minutes.

03 - Add chicken pieces and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned on all sides, approximately 5 minutes.
04 - Sprinkle in curry powder, cumin, coriander, turmeric, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to coat chicken and cook for 1 minute to release spice aromas.

06 - Lower heat and stir in yogurt, mixing thoroughly. Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
07 - Pour in water and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Simmer gently for 5 to 10 minutes until chicken is cooked through and sauce achieves a creamy, slightly thickened consistency.
08 - Taste and adjust salt or spices as needed for desired flavor balance.
09 - Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve hot with rice or naan.
