This Recipe is completely my Mom-in-law's. Ofcourse she cooks all the recipes with a spicy touch. Its one of my favourite recipes of her's. It is a Mouth watering hot and spicy chicken side dish. The Whole Pepper is twisted in Garlic and renders a delicious flavour. Let's see how to prepare.
Ingredients:
- Boneless Chicken - 1/2 kg
- Big Onion - 1 large
- Peppercorns - 2 tbsp(Do avoid Pepper powder)
- Green chilli - 2 medium size or 1 big size
- Garlic - 10 pods big size(Do avoid Garlic paste)
- Cinnamon stick - 1 inch
- Cardamom - 1 no
- Turmeric - 1 tsp
- Curry leaves - 2 sprig
- Coriander leaves fistful
- Salt as per your taste
Wash thoroughly all Chicken pieces, add turmeric and salt. If it is too big cut into small pieces. Keep it aside. Grind peppercorns, chilli, cinnamon, curry leaves, and garlic to a smooth paste. Add some water while grinding.

- Take a pressure pan add onions and cardamom fry till brown, add the ground masala and turmeric powder fry till raw smell leaves.
- Now add the chicken pieces and saute nicely.
- Add water and required salt. cook well up to 4 whistles.
- Open the lid and u will notice some water in it.
- Reduce the water quantity by keeping in medium flame.
- Stir often so that it may not get burnt.
- Now the pepper is very well twisted with this garlic chicken and provides spiciness.
- If you want gravy just switch off in gravy consistency.
- Or if you prefer dry pepper chicken wait for some more time till the water completely reduced. Anyways it will be in slightly gravy texture( I prefer only this dry chicken).
- Garnish with enough coriander leaves. It gives a nice flavour.
It goes well with Rotis, Chappathi's and especially with Rice Varieties or even as side for Chicken Biryani.
Notes:
- Whole Pepper corns gives a nice aroma to this Garlic Chicken. Usage of Pepper powder differs the good taste of the whole recipe.
- Use whole Garlic pods. Avoid Garlic paste.
- If you need more gravy increase the Pepper and Garlic quantity.
This is so yummy... lovely...
