Indian Chili Chicken image

A simple yet delicious Indian chicken dish taught to me by a good friend. Works best if you have a wok. Serve with steamed or sticky rice and your choice of naan. (Start cooking the rice when you start the first step.) You can add an extra presentation flair by slicing the peppers at an angle.

Time 45m

Yield 6 plates, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

vegetable oil
1 3/4 lbs chicken breast fillets
2 1/2 tablespoons hot chili powder (Laxmi extra hot)
7 tablespoons ginger-garlic paste
1/2 cup flour
1 red onion, sliced
6 jalapeno peppers, sliced (or 10 serrano peppers)
3 teaspoons soy sauce
0.5 (5 1/2 ounce) bottle sweet asian chicken chili sauce
2 pinches salt
1 bunch cilantro

Steps:

  • Add vegetable oil to a depth of 1-2 inches in a pot; heat on medium-high heat.
  • Cut chicken breast fillets into bite-sized pieces.
  • Combine chicken, chili powder, and five tbsp of ginger-garlic paste in a bowl.
  • Mix well while lightly covering mixture with the 1/2 cup of flour; chicken pieces should be fully covered with flour. Set aside.
  • Add about 1/4 cup of vegetable oil to the wok and heat on medium-high.
  • Add sliced onion, sliced peppers, and two tbsp of ginger-garlic paste to wok; stir occasionally ensuring the vegetables are coated in oil.
  • By now the oil in the pot should be heated (carefully test with a single drop of water). Gently submerge the chicken pieces, covering the bottom of the pot. Once bubbling settles down remove the pieces onto a plate with paper towels. Repeat until all the chicken is cooked. Be sure not to overcook the the chicken. Pat the remaining oil from the chicken with a paper towel.
  • The vegetables in the wok should be softened. Add the chicken, a few shots of soy sauce, sweet chili sauce, and salt. Mix well for a minute or two.
  • Serve with rice and naan and top with cilantro. Yumm!

I followed the recipe exactly and the dish turned out great! The chicken was tender and juicy, and the sauce was flavorful and slightly spicy. I served it over rice, and it was a perfect meal.

This dish was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. He said the chicken was tender and the sauce was flavorful. I will probably make it again, but I will use less chili powder next time.
