Description

What is Pepper Chicken Fry?

Pepper Chicken Fry is a semi-dry or dry chicken dish loaded with black pepper, curry leaves, and garam masala. Unlike other spicy chicken dishes, this one gets its heat from crushed black pepper, making it fragrant, mildly smoky, and addictive. The dish is quick to prepare and has a bold, earthy flavor that stands out from other chicken recipes.

How is Pepper Chicken Fry Cooked?

This dish is first marinated with spices and then stir-fried in ginger-garlic paste, onions, and curry leaves until the chicken is crispy and infused with peppery goodness. The fresh black pepper powder is added towards the end, ensuring maximum aroma and spiciness.
