Pepper Chicken

                                            Chicken pepper fry


This is quick and easy recipe yet so delicious. Enjoy this spicy chicken as a starter or serve as sides. To get the best aroma use freshly ground black peppercorns or heat the required amount of pepper powder, as spices give inevitable flavor when heated just before use. You may substitute half tsp pepper with half tsp crushed pepper corns.









Ingredients:

500 gm Chicken pieces (cubed of about 1 inch)
1 tsp pepper powder
½ tsp coriander powder
1 small green bell pepper (chopped lengthwise)
1 tsp Ginger garlic paste
1 ½ tbsp lemon juice
¼ tsp turmeric
3 tbsp Oil
Salt to taste
    


Directions:

Step 1:  Marinate chicken with salt, turmeric, lemon juice. Keep aside for 30 minutes.



Step 2:  Heat oil in a sauce pan, add green bell pepper and saute for few seconds(don’t over fry, let it be crunchy). Add ginger garlic paste and saute. 


                          
                                         
Step 3: Add marinated chicken and fry until it’s half done in a low flame.



Step 4: Add pepper powder, coriander powder, saute it and add ½ cup water. Cover the lid and cook for 6-8 minutes or until done. Open the lid cover and fry till water evaporates.  







Note:

Onion is optional
Serve warm with lemon wedges
