Tonight, let's create an Indian feast! First, marinate the chicken thighs in a vibrant spice blend for at least 30 minutes, infusing it with flavor. While it marinates, get your basmati rice cooking. Then, sauté onions and create a creamy tomato sauce where the chicken simmers to perfection. For the Saag Paneer, wilt spinach and blend into a puree, then gently combine with paneer. Total cooking time is around 60 minutes, a little prep goes a long way. Enjoy!
