White Chicken Handi is a creamy, flavorful dish originating from South Asian cuisine, particularly Pakistan. Traditionally prepared in a handi, a clay cooking pot, its hallmark is a velvety white sauce made with yogurt, cream, and cashews or almonds. Tender chicken is cooked with aromatic spices such as garlic, ginger, cardamom, and black pepper, creating a rich and subtly spiced flavor profile. While it's rich in protein from the chicken and nutrients from the nuts, the dish is indulgent due to its high-fat content from cream and ghee or oil. However, the use of natural herbs and spices lends antioxidant benefits. For a healthier preparation, one can reduce the cream or substitute it with lighter alternatives, although it may alter the traditional texture. Served often with naan or rice, White Chicken Handi is a delectable treat that showcases the hearty essence of South Asian cuisine.
