I have not posted any chicken recipe for more than a year since I have not experimented any new chicken dish. Recently, I have tried few chicken items and I will be sharing it one by one. I am owning a Facebook Group "Happy Indian Foodies", which is mainly a platform for home cooks and foodies. In the group, we were planning to cook a dish every month based on the given theme. This month I am hosting the event and the theme is "Kids Pleasure".
When I was planning to try something for this event, the chicken chippies strikes my mind. I came across this after coming to Sydney and I have tasted it quite a few times. Whenever I cross a chicken shop in the nearby Westfield Mall, I have seen school kids ordering this chicken chippies and relishing it on the way back home after school. Though Happy doesn't show much interest in chicken, she too likes it. For the recipe, I referred here and modified a little. Let us move on to the preparation steps:
Ingredients:Boneless Chicken(thigh or breast fillet) - 400 grams
Panko Bread Crumbs - 1/2 Cup
All Purpose Flour - 1/4 Cup
Egg - 2
Oil - To deep fry
To Marinate:
Garlic Powder - 1 tsp or Garlic paste - 1 tsp
Pepper - 1.5 tsp
Salt - as required
Curd/Yogurt - 1 tbsp
Method:
1. Slice the boneless thigh or breast fillets into fingers as shown below. Transfer it to a bowl and marinate with the items under 'To marinate'.
2. Allow the marinated chicken to rest for 1 hour or you can rest it in the fridge overnight.
3. To Fry the Chicken: Beat the egg in a bowl and spread the flour, breadcrumbs on a plate. Coat the chicken in the flour, followed by egg and then in bread crumbs.
4. Arrange the coated pieces in a plate. Heat oil in a kadai and fry the coated chicken pieces in batches until it is golden brown.
Drain the excess oil in tissue paper and serve it hot with Mayonnise or tomato sauce.
- A pinch of turmeric powder can also be added. Also, for extra spiciness chilli flakes can be added.
- The original recipe calls for panko breadcrumbs and I used that. If you don't have that, use normal breadcrumbs.
