Chicken Bharta is a flavorful and mildly spiced Indian chicken dish that originated in Kolkata’s Mughlai-influenced cuisine. It features tender, shredded chicken cooked in a rich, creamy tomato-based gravy infused with aromatic spices such as cumin, garam masala, and turmeric. The addition of butter, cream, and boiled eggs enhances its luxurious texture and depth of flavor. This dish is known for its smooth consistency and subtle smokiness, often achieved by using kasuri methi (dried fenugreek leaves). Traditionally served with naan, paratha, or jeera rice, Chicken Bharta is a delightful blend of Mughlai and Bengali culinary influences, making it a favorite in Indian restaurants and home kitchens alike.
