Savor the authentic taste of Degi Chicken Lahori, commonly referred to as Chargha.

 Whole Chicken Preparation: Chargha typically involves a whole chicken that is deeply scored or pierced to allow the marinade to penetrate the meat thoroughly, ensuring flavor in every bite.

 Intense Marinade: The chicken is marinated for several hours in a thick mixture of yogurt, aromatic spices (including red chili powder, cumin, coriander, and turmeric), ginger, garlic, and sometimes lemon juice, giving it a bright red-orange color.

 Unique Cooking Method (Degi Style): The term Degi implies cooking in a large, heavy-bottomed pot (deg). The chicken is often steamed first until tender, and then deep-fried at a high temperature, resulting in extremely tender meat with a crispy, flavorful skin. Alternatively, it can be slow roasted.

 Tender and Juicy: The two-stage cooking process—steaming/slow-cooking followed by frying—ensures the meat remains incredibly tender and moist while the exterior develops a delightful crust.
