Shan Chicken Masala Seasoning Mix

Shan Chicken Masala Seasoning Mix is a ready-blended spice mix used to cook a South Asian-style chicken curry at home. It saves you measuring out many separate spices. You add the mix to chicken, onion and tomato to make a thick, savoury masala sauce.

How to Cook Chicken Masala with This Mix

A seasoning mix like this is added to a base of fried onion, tomato and chicken. The mix itself is not a complete meal, so you will need to add your own fresh ingredients.

Most cooks start by frying sliced onion in oil until soft and golden. Then they add the chicken, the spice mix and chopped tomatoes or yoghurt. The curry simmers gently until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is thick. Follow the quantities on the pack for the amount of chicken and mix to use.

Ways to Use Shan Chicken Masala

Shan Chicken Masala suits everyday family cooking as well as dinners for guests. Here are some common ways to use it:

  • A classic chicken curry served with rice or roti
  • Chicken and potato curry cooked in one pot
  • Bone-in chicken thighs and drumsticks simmered until tender
  • Chicken stirred through with peas or spinach near the end
  • A spiced coating for chicken pieces before roasting in the oven

Tips for a Thicker, Richer Sauce

The best chicken masala sauce comes from cooking the base well before adding any water. Let the onions turn properly golden first. Then fry the spice mix with the tomatoes until the oil starts to separate at the edges.

This step is often called bhuna. It gives the sauce a deeper taste and a thicker texture. Add water a little at a time, so the curry does not turn thin. Marinating the chicken in the mix and yoghurt for an hour or two before cooking is another easy way to add taste.

Shan Chicken Masala FAQ

Do I need to add anything else to the mix?

Yes, you will need to add chicken, oil, onion and usually tomatoes or yoghurt. Check the pack for the exact method and amounts, as it explains what to add.

How do I stop the curry from being watery?

Cook the onions and tomatoes down well before adding water. Fry the masala until the oil separates, then simmer with the lid off for the last few minutes to thicken the sauce.

Can I use this mix for anything other than chicken curry?

The mix is made for chicken masala, and that is where it works best. Many home cooks also use it to season roast chicken pieces or a chicken and potato curry.
