📖 The Story Behind This Dish

Indian tandoori chicken is cooked in a clay oven, but this creative version narrows the marinade to yogurt, curry powder, and ketchup and cooks it in a frying pan. The onions underneath soak up the marinade and turn sweet, so the side dish is done at the same time. Ingredients are kept to a minimum so it can be made with things you're likely to have at home.

🌆 Where it's eaten: On a weeknight, chicken marinated that morning cooks in a frying pan, and the red-tinged meat and sweet onions go onto one plate.
