2 tsp. Kashmiri mirch or chili powder to taste
2 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar
2 tsp. shrimp sauce in oil
4 Tbsp. vegetable oil
3-4 green chilies, slit
salt to taste

Directions:
1. Boil ground chicken in chicken broth for 20 minutes.
2. Remove chicken from broth, allow to cool and break into pieces.
3. Pulse chicken in food processor until crumbled.
4. Place chicken & all other ingredients into the same skillet & bring to a boil.
5. Adjust salt to taste, stir, cover and simmer over medium heat.
