Method
Step 1: Prepare the Yogurt Sauce
- In a mixing bowl, combine yogurt, minced garlic, lemon juice, and a small pinch of salt. Mix until smooth and set aside.

Step 2: Cook the Chicken
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken cubes, cumin, coriander, turmeric, garam masala, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 6–8 minutes until golden brown and fully cooked. Remove chicken and set aside.

Step 3: Sauté the Vegetables
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the same skillet. Add onion and cook for 2 minutes until softened. Stir in bell pepper, zucchini, tomatoes, and peas. Cook for 5–6 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.

Step 4: Combine Everything
- Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Reduce heat to low and pour in the yogurt mixture. Stir gently until everything is coated. Warm for 2–3 minutes without boiling.

Step 5: Garnish and Rest
- Turn off the heat. Sprinkle chopped cilantro and fresh mint over the dish. Allow it to rest for 2 minutes.

Step 6: Serve
- Serve warm with rice, naan bread, quinoa, or a fresh salad. Garnish with lemon wedges.

Notes
For the best flavor, use fresh vegetables and room-temperature yogurt. Avoid boiling after adding the yogurt sauce to keep it smooth and creamy. This recipe is highly customizable—swap chicken for tofu or chickpeas and adjust spices to suit your taste preferences.
