Jardaloo Murghi (Apricot Chicken Curry) image

This dish is the result of the fusion of Persian and Hindu influences during the Murghi (Mogul) Empire period in India.This recipe is popular among the Parsi community in India. Time listed does not include marinating time. Made for a Tag Game. Kind of a sweet and spicy flavor which I truly love!!
