Chicken Kabab


Chicken kabab is a very popular starter. Almost everyone who eat chicken are well known about this dish. I am sure most would agree with me on this. Chicken deep fried in oil with the extra seasoning makes it tasty and lip smacking. This is indeed a true mouth watering dry chicken dish. It’s not a tough job to get restaurant quality, this is a very easy method to cook at home with a restaurant style taste.So here is the recipe. Do try making these and let me know how it turned out.



Ingredients

4 tbsp maida/ all purpose flour
2 tbsp cornstarch/cornflour
2 tbsp red chili powder
2 tbsp ginger garlic paste
2 eggs
1 tbsp cumin powder
2 tsp garam masala
1 tsp coriander powder
Juice of 1 lime (or to taste)
3 green chilies, finely chopped
1/4 tsp red food colour,optional ( I used it)
Salt to taste
1 kg chicken, with bones
Oil for deep frying


Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix together all the ingredients from maida to salt. Add a few extra drops of water if the batter is very thick.
  2. Add the chicken pieces and mix to coat well. 
  3. Let it marinate, covered, in the fridge for 3-4 hours. 
  4. Heat oil on high heat, in a deep vessel. Reduce the heat to medium-high and add the chicken pieces, a few pieces at a time. 
  5. Fry for 3-4 mins turning the pieces occasionally. If you fry it further, the colour of the coating will change from red to brown, if you used food colour. 
  6. Drain on paper towels and serve hot with a few lime wedges & onions rings.
