Originating from the South Indian city of Madras, now known as Chennai, this dish has a long history dating back to the British colonial era. It was influenced by the flavors of the region, including a blend of aromatic spices such as cumin, coriander, turmeric, and chili. The dish was traditionally prepared by skilled chefs in the Madras region, using locally sourced ingredients and traditional cooking methods. Today, the best versions of Chicken Madras can be found in authentic Indian restaurants that stay true to the original recipe, ensuring the perfect balance of heat and flavor.
