Chicken Do Piaza: Chicken with 2 or double the amount of onions

Ingredients
1 chicken, cut into pieces
1 lg. onion, finely sliced
1-2 T. oil
4 tomatoes, chopped (used big can)
4 green chilies (definitely did not use this much :) used half of 1 haha)
1tsp. red chili powder
6 curry leaves
1/2 tsp. turmeric powder
1 T. ginger/garlic paste
1/4 tsp. cinnamon powder
salt to taste

Heat the cooking oil in a pan and fry the onions until they change color, about light golden. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside. Stir-fry the chicken, with ginger/garlic paste and salt. As soon as the liquid from the chicken dries, add the red chili powder, turmeric powder, cinnamon powder, the fried onions, tomatoes, green chilies, and curry leaves. Cook on low heat for about 10 minutes, adding small amounts of water from time to time to prevent scorching. When the oil separates from the curry the Do-piaza is ready! This Pakistani dish turned out to be scrumptious. Being Middle-eastern, my family and I had it with white rice. Enjoy!
