The marinade typically includes a combination of yoghurt, ginger-garlic paste, lemon juice, and a variety of spices such as cumin, coriander, turmeric, chilli powder, garam masala, and paprika. Served with a side of mint chutney and fresh lemon wedges, the Chicken Chargha at ZARF is a true delight for both the eyes and the palate. Whether you’re dining with friends, family, or flying solo, this dish is sure to leave a lasting impression. And at ZARF this dish was nothing less than tantalising and absolutely delicious.
