I know this may not be an authentic recipe for chicken curry and it may not be the correct name for this dish and I apologize. I made this dish a little more sour according to my and my Persian husbands tastes so its not very spicy, if you reduce the Greek yogurt in the sauce then it may turn out more on the spicy side. Best served with naan and Basmati rice. Enjoy! 🥰
