Ingredients
- Boneless Chicken - 500 grams (Breast piece preferable & skinless)
- Capsicum- 2 medium size/150 grams
- Spring onions - 2
- Spring onions greens - 1/2 cup
Soya sauce - 2 tsp - Salt - to taste
Black pepper powder - 1 tsp
All purpose flour (Maida) - 3/4 cup - Egg - 1
- Vegetable oil -1/2 ltr
- Sweet Chillie sauce - 2 tsp (Red)
Preparation
- Wash chicken pieces properly and try to remove all the fats
- Cut the chicken in strips (1 inch thick and 3 inch long)
- Dice the Capsicum into medium cubes
- Medium Slice the spring onions and greens
Merination
- Mix Salt, Soya Sauce and Black pepper powder in a bowl.
- Into this mixture add 1/2 tsp oil
- Add the chicken strips in this mixture and mix it well. Check if all the chicken strips are coated with the merination
- Cover it with a lid or Fresh wrap and leave this for at least 2 hours in refrigerator
- Start the burner and heat the wok in which we will deep fry our marinated chicken
- Add 1/2 ltr of oil into the wok and let it heat
- Now get our chicken out of refrigerator, crack an egg into the marinated chicken
- Whisk the egg and chicken so that they are properly mixed
- Add all purpose flour in the bowl and mix it well with the chicken. Make sure it coats to all the pieces of chicken
- When the oil is hot, start frying the chicken pieces and please drop one piece a time in oil to avoid to form lumps
- Set the fried chicken on a plate with Paper napkins so that it soaks all the extra oil
- Switch off the burner of the wok and add capsicum cubes in the hot oil. Fry the capsicum for 10 secs or until they get a glaze. We want them to be crisp and not soggy
- Now heat a sauce pan and add 1 tsp of oil
- Add sliced spring onions and its greens into the pan and stir it
- Add chicken and capsicum in the pan and stir them with the spring onions
- Add sweet and chillie sauce and mix it well. If you do not have sweet chillie sauce, you can use normal Tomato ketchup. Dilute it with some water and add red chilly flakes/chilly powder to make it spicy.
- Let them cook for 2 mins and then turn off the heat
- It is ready to be served. Garnish it with some spring onions greens
- I prefer to serve it with Cabbage and onion Salad and Green chutney Mayonese. It is delicious even without the salad and chutney
