About Saoji Chicken

Saoji Chicken Recipe

Saoji Chicken is a bold Nagpur-style Maharashtrian chicken curry with dark roasted coconut and hot Saoji masala.

Why this recipe works

  • Roast coconut darker than usual for Saoji depth.
  • The curry should be intense, spicy and slightly coarse.
  • A short rest helps the roasted spice flavour settle.

Serving idea

Serve with bhakri, chapati, steamed rice or sliced onion.
