Chicken 65

Ingredients

Chicken pieces - 10 (big size w/ bones)
Red chilli powder - 2 sp
Turmeric powder - 1/4 sp (optional)
Chilli chicken 65 powder - 1 sp (optional)
Salt - To taste

Method

1. Wash the chicken pieces and place them in a bowl.
2. Add the other ingredients and mix well so that the masala spreads all over the chicken pieces.
3. Keep the bowl closed, in the refrigerator for 1 - 2 hrs (marination).
4. Deep fry in oil over medium heat until crisp and brown.
5. Serve hot with chicken curry / variety rice / sambhar or simply as an appetizer.

Note

1. Chicken w/ bones suits this recipe well. But chicken w/o bones can also be used.
2. The marinated chicken can be kept in the freezer (stays good for 2 -3 days) and can be fried whenever required.
