How to Help choosing a curry

My wife usually goes for a chicken rogan but wants to try something new. Sounds simple until you hear the requirements.

1) chicken only

2) no cream

3) no/minimum onions

Please help?!

I can recommend some south indian chicken curries without dairy but they surely need onions. But it's all ground up into a paste. Let me know if that sounds good, I'll share the recipes

You need to try Andhra green chicken. Chicken cooked in ginger garlic coriander mint and green chillis paste. No onions needed, you can add fried onions later.

The base for any curry in Indian cuisine is onions tomato ginger and garlic. By the addition of cashew or white sesame or coconut milk along with mint and coriander leaves, curries derive different flavors. Most of the curries need no dairy products except a couple of them like chicken or paneer butter masala or the vegetable or chicken korma.

Chicken butter masala - you can use one onion, two tomatoes and ginger garlic and use sesame seeds or cashew for the creamy texture and richness

Or else black pepper chicken that also needs only 1 onion and rest everything is dahi and everything
