Heat up a pan.
Add the marinated chicken directly on medium flame.
Cover and cook for about 15 mins or till the chicken is cooked.
:- Do not worry since it will not catch the pan beneath.
Add ajinomotto and the optional food colour, only if you would like a bright appearance.
Melt butter in a frying pan.
Add the chillies and curry leaves and fry, till the curry leaves become dry.
Add this mixture on top of the chicken on flame and mix well.
