Pepper Chicken




Pepper chicken is extremely flavorful chicken with a spicy peppery taste. It is a simple dish with little ingredients which can be put together quickly. The only spice used here is pepper but you can also add garam masala. What I love in this chicken is its simplicity but at the same time it has a wonderful taste and enticing flavors of pepper,ginger,garlic and curry leaves.


Ingredients
Chicken - 1 lb
( Here I have used boneless chicken)
Onion chopped- 1large
Ginger- 2 inch thick piece
Garlic- 8-10 cloves
Turmeric powder- 1/2 tsp
Pepper powder- 1 1/3 tsp
( adjust according to taste)
Whole pepper- 1/2 tsp
Clove- 3
Curry leaves
oil
salt to taste
lemon juice- 1 1/2 tsp
Coriander leaves


Heat oil in a pan and add cloves and whole pepper and slightly roast. Now add ginger, garlic and curry leaves and fry till there is a nice aroma. Add onions and when slightly brown add turmeric powder and chicken. Stir fry in medium flame for two minutes. Add pepper powder and salt and half a cup of water and close the lid. When the chicken is cooked and all the water is absorbed add lemon juice and coriander leaves and mix well.

Try this...
Hope you will all enjoy..

Spiced Pineapple Pickle- Kerala Pineapple Achar

Spiced Pineapple Pickle- Kerala Pineapple Achar Pineapple pickle is a delicious pickle, fresh and bursting with tropical flavors. Pineapple pickle has a sweet and savory combination and adds a zesty kick to any meal. Do you like sweet and spicy pickles?. I love pickled, salted, and fermented vegetables and fruits . It is easy-to-make condiments and a must-have in my kitchen. My family favorites are sweet and savory pineapple chutney and spiced pineapple in salted brine. Salted pineapples are good on sandwiches, fish tacos, or roasted meat. The best part of this pickle is that you can use it just like chutney or salted pineapple. The pickle is for those who love to take the spice level a notch higher. Pineapple pickle is a tongue-tingling sweet, tangy, mildly spiced pickle. It is delicious, and the flavor and taste are irresistible. It can be paired practically with everything, but it is best with parathas and naan. This recipe is from my mother-in-law. Sweet and sour pickles a...
