Instructions

Step 1

In a dry skillet, toast the walnuts over medium heat until they become fragrant and lightly browned. Be careful not to burn them. Remove from the heat and let them cool.

Step 2

Once cooled, place the toasted walnuts in a food processor and blend until they turn into a fine walnut paste.

Step 3

In a large saucepan, sauté the finely chopped onion and minced garlic until they become translucent.

Step 4

Add the walnut paste, chicken or vegetable broth, ground coriander, fenugreek, paprika, and cayenne pepper to the saucepan. Stir well and let it simmer over low heat for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally. The sauce should thicken and become creamy.

Step 5

While the sauce is simmering, season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Grill or cook the chicken until it's fully cooked and has a nice sear. Slice the chicken into thin strips.
