CHICKEN CHILLI - AN INDO CHINESE FUSION FOOD

I am sure you are in a joyous mood with the celebration of Merry Christmas. Wishing all of my readers and friends A wonderful Christmas.

 

Celebrated this joyous moment with scrumptious and my hot favourite CHILLI CHICKEN. It is teen's favourite too. This delicious and flavorful chicken recipe, needs very less effort than any other Indian Chicken dishes I know. I used boneless chicken, but you might use chicken with bones, that's also comes out good. A popular INDO-CHINESE goes well with noodles, fried rice or simply with hot & sour soup. A great and spicy supper that can be made in advance.
