• 1 tsp Dark Soy Sauce
• 1 tsp Tomato Sauce
• 1 tsp Kashmiri Red Chili Powder
• 1 tsp Crushed Dried Red Chilies
• 1/2 tsp Oregano
• 1 tbsp White Vinegar
• Additional Cooking Oil for frying
• 1 tbsp Butter

For the Vegetables:

• 1/2 cup Boiled Carrot, sliced
• 1/2 cup Boiled Broccoli
• 1/2 cup Boiled French Beans
• 1 Medium Potato, cut into wedges and boiled
• 1 Medium Tomato, sliced
• 1/4 tsp Salt
• 1/2 tsp Black Pepper Powder
• 2 tbsp Butter

For the White Garlic Sauce:

• 1 tbsp Chopped Garlic
• 2 tbsp Butter
• 2 tbsp All-Purpose Flour
• 1.5 cups Milk
• 1/4 tsp Salt
• 1/2 tsp Black Pepper Powder
• 1/2 tsp Chili Flakes
• 1/2 tsp Oregano

Instructions

1. Marinate the Chicken:

• In a mixing bowl, combine minced garlic, cooking oil, black pepper powder, salt, soy sauce, tomato sauce, Kashmiri red chili powder, crushed dried red chilies, oregano, and white vinegar.
• Coat the chicken breasts evenly with the marinade. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.

2. Cook the Chicken:

• Heat additional cooking oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken breasts and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until fully cooked through.
• Add 1 tbsp of butter during the last minute of cooking to enhance the flavor and give the chicken a nice golden brown finish. Once cooked, remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest.

3. Prepare the Vegetables:

• In a separate pan, melt 2 tbsp of butter over medium heat.
• Add the boiled carrot slices, broccoli, French beans, and potato wedges. Season with salt and black pepper powder.
• Sauté the vegetables for a few minutes until they are heated through and slightly golden. Add the tomato slices at the end, cooking for just a minute to keep them fresh.

4. Make the White Garlic Sauce:

• In the same skillet used for the chicken, melt 2 tbsp of butter over medium heat.
• Add the chopped garlic and sauté until fragrant.
• Stir in the all-purpose flour and cook for about 1-2 minutes to remove the raw taste of the flour.
• Gradually add the milk while whisking constantly to avoid lumps.
• Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens. Season with salt, black pepper powder, chili flakes, and oregano.

5. Assemble the Dish:

• Place the cooked chicken steaks on a serving plate.
• Pour the creamy white garlic sauce generously over the chicken.
• Arrange the sautéed vegetables around the chicken for a beautiful presentation.

Cooking Tips:

• Marinating Time: For best results, marinate the chicken for at least 2 hours or overnight in the refrigerator.
• Cooking Chicken: Ensure the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) for safe consumption.
• Sauce Consistency: Adjust the consistency of the sauce by adding more milk if it becomes too thick or simmering it longer if it’s too thin.

Storage Tips:

• Refrigeration: Store leftover chicken, vegetables, and sauce separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• Reheating: Reheat the chicken and sauce gently on the stovetop or in the microwave. Add a splash of milk to the sauce if it thickens too much when refrigerated.
