Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Boneless chicken breast
- 100 grams Yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Ginger-garlic paste
- 1 tablespoon Red chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon Garam masala
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 2 tablespoons Corn flour
- 2 tablespoons Rice flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 Egg
- 10 leaves Curry leaves

Instructions
Cut the boneless chicken into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, red chili powder, turmeric powder, garam masala, coriander powder, cumin powder, and salt.
Add the chicken pieces to the marinade and mix well to coat evenly. Let it sit for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator for better flavor.
After marination, add corn flour, rice flour, and the egg to the chicken mixture. Mix well to form a thick coating.
Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, fry the curry leaves and green chilies for a few seconds until crispy. Remove them and set aside.
Carefully drop the chicken pieces into the hot oil one by one, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
Fry the chicken until they are golden brown and crispy, approximately 6-7 minutes per batch.
Remove the fried chicken and drain on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Garnish the fried chicken with crispy curry leaves, green chilies, and a squeeze of lemon juice before serving.
