"Mirchi Murgi!!!" |
Hi everyone!!!!
I'm back after a long break.. And today's dish is the Indian Adaptation of Chicken Chilly.... The Mirchi Murgi!!!!
Well, again the day started with hunting for the ingredients, and I got:
Chicken : 500 gm
Onion : 500 gm
Oil: 2+1 tbsp.
Red Chili Powder: 2 tspn.
Turmeric powder: 1 tspn.
Coriander powder : 2 tspn.
Meat Masala : 2 tspn.
Ginger Garlic Paste: 1 tspn.
Red Chili : 3 Nos.
After I got all of these, first thing was to keep the chicken for marination. 1 tbsp. of oil and a little ginger garlic paste with some salt and red chili powder was added to the chicken and mixed properly. The same was left for about half an hour. Meanwhile I chopped onions and kept the entire mise-en-place ready.
Its very funny thing to know that in Indian Cuisine, mostly you don't need to worry about the cut of vegetables. So if you aren't comfortable with fine chopping, bindass chop it roughly.
Now heat the oil in a kadhai and put cumin seeds and red chilies. After two mins add the onion and let it get fried to a golden brown color. Then add the marinated chicken and continue cooking. After it's cooked for 5-10 mins. add the rest of the spices and keep cooking.
After the spices are cooked well, add salt as per taste and keep cooking for about 15 mins.
It's recommended not to add water to keep the taste more vibrant.
Serve hot!!!! Goes well with paratha or roti.
Enjoy!!!!
