Easy Peasy Garlicy Chicken

This chicken appetizer is very easy to cook and hence I’ve named it Easy Peasy Garlicy Chicken. It is great to serve as a snack or as an entrée. Great to eat if you are on a diet too.

Serves: 4 to 6 Persons

Prep. Time: 10 Mins + Marination

Cooking Time: 10 to 12 Mins

Ingredients:

• Chicken [breast, boneless] – 500 gms
• For the Marinade:
  • Garlic – 15 to 18 medium cloves
  • Red Chilly Powder – 1 to 1 ¼ tsp.
  • White / Black Pepper Corns – 1 tsp.
  • Turmeric Powder – ¼ tsp.
  • Curds – 2 tbsp.
• Lime – 1 small
• Oil – 3 tbsp.
• Salt – ¾ to 1 tsp.

Step 1:     Wash the chicken breasts and pat dry with absorbent kitchen towels. Slice the breasts at an angle / slanting.

Step 2:     Apply ¾ tsp. salt and juice of the lime to the chicken and leave aside for 15 minutes.

Step 3:     Grind the ingredients listed under marinade to a smooth paste. Marinate the chicken for 2 hours or overnight.

Step 4:     When you are ready, shallow fry the pieces and serve hot.

Note:

• White Pepper Corns give a different flavor. I have used white pepper.
