I am trying to use as much as greens as I can. I got this fresh fenugreek leaves (methi) from fresh market and wanted to make something different this time and at the same time wanted to eat chicken too. So thought of this recipe. It came out so good. I was satisfied eating both greens and as well as chicken which is my all time favorite.
You can serve this recipe with Steamed Rice, Jeera Rice or Roti's. I serve this methi chicken with Onion Rice. (click on the link to see the recipe)
