About a year ago, I watched a video in which an Indian chicken dish was made on the stovetop and the dish was smoked while in the pan.

A small, stainless-steel cup was placed into the center of the preparation, which was in a skillet, wood chips were placed in the dish and lit, and a lid was placed over the skillet trapping the  smoke and infusing the chicken preparation with flavor. I've since disappeared the video link, and I'd like to see the video again, or another that uses the technique, to refresh my memory.

OK, I found what I was looking for. It's often referred to as a coal smoke method.  Here's a link to a couple of videos that'll provide an idea of the technique for anyone interested. The variation I saw used wood chips in a container that were heated with a torch.

It seems simple enough, and I can try it, but I'd rather not ruin a dish unneccessarily if it can be avoided. And since the smoke was added towards the end of cooking, a lot of work and time could be wasted ifa gross error is made.

Has anyone used this smoking technique and perhaps offer some tips or suggestions, or can anyone help with a link to a similar video. The video I saw was of an Indian or Pakistani cook.
