Pepper Chicken Fry

We love this dish. The roasted onion and ginger garlic paste in the dish gives the warm smell. And the tomato puree and lime adds a tangy taste. The pepper powder soothes a tough throat suffering from cold and cough. You sure can feel the home remedy as when the chicken slides down your throat. 

I hope when the hot pepper chicken fry goes in and your cold comes out. I would recommend this recipe for winter. No need to add any extra masala for spiciness except chilli and pepper. It’s something different from normal chicken fry. This goes well with any Roti/ Parota/ Steamed rice/ Fried Rice
