This is truly a very tasty chicken recipe. It is prepared using lots of black pepper (crushed and not powder). And that gives the recipe a great flavor and a punch to the taste.
As I had mentioned in my earlier post that my love for chicken is inevitable and that drove me to try another chicken recipe this weekend. This time I had tried something in completely Desi style. I’ve used the egg white and yolk ⇩ separately to garnish the dish and it gave pretty colourful contrast to the presentation⇧.
Ingredients
Chicken (with bone/boneless) – 300 gm
Egg – 1 (for garnishing)
Onion – 1 medium sized chopped
Capsicum – Half of a large capsicum (this is an optional choice)
Green chili – 4 chopped
Ginger paste – 1 tsp
Curd – ½ cup
Crushed black pepper – 4 tsp
Butter – 20 gm
Salt – To taste
Oil – 2 tbsp
Method
- Marinate chicken with beaten curd, 2 tsp crushed black pepper and salt and rest it for about an hour.
- Heat oil and butter in a frying pan and sauté chopped onion.
- Add diced capsicum to the sautéed onion. If you are not using capsicum please ignore this step.
- Once onion gets soften add ginger paste and stir it well.
- Add marinated chicken and mix it well with the sautéed mix.
- Wait till the time the gravy leaves oil.
- Add little water and cook it covered till the chicken gets tender.
- Switch off the gas and sprinkle the remaining crushed black pepper and butter. Mix it well.
- Fry egg white and yolk separately. Cut both in julienne and use it for garnishing.
Try this recipe at home and am sure you like the taste. I would love to prepare the dish again and next time I will try it with phulka or naan or paratha. Don’t forget to post your comments out here and please share if you have tried it in any different way.

That’s something very different – what you do with the egg. I’ve honestly never seen it before. Will try it out

This is a recipe from my wife’s experiment. The egg this is just for garnishing. She fried the yellow and the white portions separately and garnished the dish. You can try it out.
