Ingredients
Scale
- 3–4 boneless chicken thigh pieces
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon chili flakes
- 1 teaspoon salt (for marination)
- 1 teaspoon ginger garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons red chili sauce
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (maida)
- 1 tablespoon chicken masala
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (for coating)
- 1/2 cup fresh coriander leaves
- 3–4 garlic cloves
- 1 inch piece ginger
- 2–3 green chilies
- 1/4 teaspoon salt (for chutney)
- 2 tablespoons white sesame seeds
- Oil for deep frying
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine chicken pieces with milk, lemon juice, black pepper, chili flakes, salt, ginger garlic powder, and red chili sauce. Mix well and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, mix all-purpose flour, chicken masala, and salt to prepare the coating mixture.
- For the green chutney, blend fresh coriander leaves, garlic, ginger, green chilies, and salt with a little water until smooth. Set aside.
- Heat oil in a deep pan or fryer to 350°F (175°C).
- Remove chicken from marinade and coat each piece thoroughly with the flour mixture, pressing gently to ensure coating sticks.
- Carefully lower the coated chicken pieces into the hot oil and fry for 6-8 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.
- Sprinkle with white sesame seeds while hot.
- Serve immediately with fresh green chutney.
Notes
- Chicken thigh pieces work best as they remain juicy and tender
- Marinating for longer (up to 2 hours) will enhance flavor
- Maintain oil temperature to ensure even cooking and prevent soggy coating
- Double coating can be done for extra crunch if desired
- Green chutney can be stored in refrigerator for up to 3 days
- Serve immediately while hot for best texture
