Chilli chicken is a tasty and fun appetizer !
It can also be served with Roti or rice or eaten as per preference.
Its mostly served as an Indo-Chinese appetizer in most Indian Restaurants, however I prepared it according to my taste by adding some extra spice ;-)
I took this dish for a potluck at my office and everyone loved it!
Give it a try and you'll see what I'm talking about!!

  1. Prepare the cornflour paste by adding 2 tsp corn flour with 1/4 cup of water and mix well and keep aside.
  2. Marinate the chicken by mixing it with the Corn flour ,All purpose flour and salt, sprinkle little water while marinating so that the chicken pieces are coated well.
  3. Heat oil in pan for deep frying and fry the chicken until gloden brown and place it on a plate over some kitchen paper to drain off the excess oil.
  4. In a deep skillet add 1 tbsp oil, and saute the Ginger,Garlic and Green chillies .
  5. Now add the onion and saute until the onion is fried golden brown.
