1In a large bowl, mix curd, ginger-garlic paste, chili powder, turmeric, coriander, pepper, garam masala, vinegar, and salt. Add chicken and mix until well coated. Let it marinate for at least 1 hour, or overnight.
2Blend together egg whites, cheese, skim milk, vinegar, garlic, salt, and sugar until smooth, creamy, and slightly tangy. Set aside.
3Heat a nonstick pan and spray with oil. Add marinated chicken and cook on medium-high heat for 4–5 minutes each side until golden brown. Lower the heat, cover, and cook for another 4–5 minutes until the masala thickens and forms a rich gravy base.
4Pour the sauce evenly over the chicken. Cover and cook on low heat for 2–3 minutes, allowing the sauce to gently coat and thicken.
5Garnish with chopped coriander.
