Chicken Chilli

 Hi guys!!

It  is the second phase of lockdown in Bangalore, India. I have decided to write down as many as 2 recipes in a week. These would be quick and recipes with few ingrediests.

Today I cooked chicken chilli.

It suffices for 2 adults 

Ingredients

Chicken: well of course you need chicken; 

Onion:1 medium size

Capsicum: 1 medium size

Garlic: 4-5 cloves

Refined flour or Maida: 2 tablespoon

Schezwan sauce: 1 table spoon (I am using Ching's Schezwan sauce)

Tomato ketchup: 1 table spoon

Soya sauce: 1 tea spoon

Pepper: 1 tea spoon

Refind oil : 2 tea cup for deep frying

Salt and sugar

1. I had ordered 250 grams of chicken from big basket. wash it properly. 

2. In a flat plate take maida/ flour. Add salt and pepper to it. Mix it well.

3. Now add chicken piece to it and coat it well.

4. Heat refined oil in a  kadai. When the oil is hot. Add the chicken pieces to the oil. Drop the pieces one by one. Cook at high heat for 5 minutes. Then cook at medium heat for another 15 minutes. Keep it aside.

5. In the mean time, cut onion and capsium. Peel the garlic cloves.

6.After removing the chicken. there would be oil left in kadai. Now you dont need all this oil. Remove the oil carefully in another container for later use. Leaf around 2 spoon oil in Kadai. 

7. Now add garlic to the Kadai. Stir it at medium heat for 1 minutes. Add onion (fry for 4 minute) then add capsium and cook it for 5 minutes on high heat. Add salt (as per taste) and a pinch of sugar.

8. In a container add all the sauces (tomato, soya, schezwan), flour, salt and pepper and add around quarter cup of water. Stir this mixture.

9. You will observe that the onion and capsium are cooked. Now add the mixture prepared in step 8 to the Kadai. Stir it at medium heat for 2-3 minutes. You will observe that the sauces have nicely coated the veggies. To this add the fried chicken and stir it well. Cook for another 5-7 minutes at medium heat and cover the Kadai with the lid.

10. After 5 minutes, if you want chicken chilli dry you and switch off the gas and have it as it is . If you want some gravy add some water to it (2-3 cups).
