- Heat the oil in a medium pot over a medium/high heat. Add the onion and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Next, add the ground chicken, ginger, garlic and salt, and cook on high, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid has evaporated and chicken starts to brown, roughly 7-10 minutes.
- Lower the heat to medium and add the cumin seeds, cayenne pepper, ground coriander and turmeric. Add tomatoes and continue cooking for 5 minutes.
- Add the bell pepper and green chilis, and continue cooking for a further 5 minutes. Finally add the garam masala, lemon juice and chopped cilantro, and serve immediately.
