Instructions
- Clean, wash and slit chicken pieces, if they are too big.
- Chop onions, ginger, garlic and green chillies.
- Blend turmeric powder, lemon juice and rice flour into the masala paste along with salt.
- Apply this mixture along with shredded curry leaves onto the chicken and leave to marinate for 2 - 3 hrs in the refrigerator.
- Heat oil in a shallow pan.
- Add marinated chicken and saute for 2 mins on both sides to seal the exterior.
- Reduce heat to medium, cover with the lid and cook for 15 - 20 mins, turning over and basting frequently with remaining marinade if any.
- Sprinkle water, if chicken stays too dry.
- :- The last few mins of cooking should be done on high heat so that the surface of the chicken becomes crispy and golden brown.
- :- Serve hot as a side dish or with any Indian bread.
