Pepper chicken curry

  Here is an extremely delicious pepper chicken curry recipe for you to enjoy during the oncoming holidays. The weather is just right to enjoy this peppery goodness! It goes well with pulav, chapathis and appam. You can use either whole cut-up chicken or boneless chicken thighs for this recipe.

  If you are not so fond of gravy, try the semi-dry version that I’ve shared here.

Method

  1. Heat coconut oil in a heavy-bottomed pan and add the ginger, garlic, green chilies, onion and little salt. Saute it until onion turns light golden.
