This dish is a fantastic blend of Chicken, Onion, Tomatoes and Spices.
Adaptation of this recipe is again from a cooking program on TV, with some alteration to customize it according to our taste buds.
The aroma of curry leaves and the coconut oil makes it a complete Kerala dish. .. a mouth watering one….
The chicken is usually deep fried and then mixed with masala. For a healthier option, I avoided the deep frying and pressure cooked it instead.It goes well with rice or chappathi
Sometimes I have the feeling, that I now cook so I can take pics.. I’m not sure that the picture gives enough justice to the statement. Anyways I enjoy both…. Caputuring it on camera and eating it as well!!

Ingredients
Chicken -750 gm
Pepper powder – 2 table spoon
Lemon juice – 2 table spoon
Chillipowder 2 table spoon
Turmeric powder- ¼ teaspoon
Coriander Powder- 1 teaspoon
Onion – 5 medium size( finely chopped)
Ginger – 2 ½ table spoon
Garlic-2 ½ table spoon
Green chilli
Tomato -3 big
Garam masala- 1 tea spoon
Salt
Preparation
preparing the chicken includes two sets of marination.
First Marinate the chicken with ½ teaspoon of pepper powder, salt and lemon juice, for about 30 mins.
For the second marinade - 1tablespoon Chilli powder – , ¼ teaspoon turmeric powder, ¼ teaspoon pepper powder, add water and make it a paste. Mix it well with the chicken and keep it aside for sometime. Deep fry the marinated chicken in coconut oil… that’s the original way.
My version has some changes here , after the first marination , I cooked the chicken in pressure cooker.. then I did the second marination. Since the chicken is cooked already… a stir fry was enough to change the raw taste of the marinade.
Now the masala part….
Heat oil in a pan, add ginger , garlic and green chilli and fry till there is a nice aroma, Add the onions, sauté it til it become golden brown, Add 1 table spoon chilli powder,I teaspoon coriander powder, ¼ tea spoon turmeric powder , fry for a minute. Add the tomatoes and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add garam masala and curry leaves and mix well..
Now add the fried chicken and roast it for sometime till the masala gets well coated over the chicken. add more curry leaves , Remove from stove .
serve with rice or chapathi.
