Gather and measure
Pat chicken dry. Keep a lid for the pot.
Set every ingredient on the counter first so you are not hunting mid-cook.

Temper fenugreek carefully
Heat oil, add fenugreek seeds. When they darken slightly (under 30 seconds), add onion. If fenugreek burns it turns harsh.

Simmer until tender
