Bangladeshi Chicken Tehari was never meant to be complicated. Its beauty is in its simplicity, bold aroma, tender chicken, fragrant short-grain rice, and the kind of comforting flavour that makes you want another plate.
In this recipe, we’re making a traditional-style Bangladeshi Chicken Tehari using Kalijeera, Chinigura, or Gobindobhog rice, whole spices, green chilies, ginger, garlic, and a simple homemade Tehari masala. The result is incredibly fragrant, flavorful, and deeply satisfying without making the dish unnecessarily complicated.
Tehari is one of those humble Bangladeshi dishes where a few everyday ingredients come together to create something truly special. ❤️
