PAN FRIED CRISPY SPICY CHICKEN WITH SAUTÉED VEGGIES AND ONION OREGANO SAUCE
Serves: 3-4
Time: 45 mins
Ingredients
For chicken:
1/2 kg chicken breast, boneless
1/4 tsp black pepper powder
1/2 tsp chicken masala powder
1 tbsp corn flour
1/4 cup bread crumbs
1/2 tsp lime juice
Salt to taste
Oil
For sautéed veggies :
2 medium carrots, cut in thin strips
3/4 cup French beans, cut in 2 inch pieces
2-3 spring opinion, cut in 1 1/2- 2 inch pieces
1 cup colored capsicum, cut in 2 inch slices
1/2 cup cabbage, cut in length wise strips
1/4 + black pepper powder ( as per taste)
1/4 tsp oregano
1/4 tsp chili flakes
Salt to taste
Oil
Method:
First of all cut chicken pieces in thin slices, horizontally and pierce the pieces with knife or fork so that they absorb flavours nicely. Now marinate it in all ingredients given under for chicken section except oil. Keep it for 20-30 mins for marination.
Heat some oil in a wide pan and place chicken pieces on it. Cover it with lid and let it cook on medium flame for 4-5 mins. Now open the lid and flip chicken pieces. If it released water then increase the flame to high to evaporate any liquid on pan. Again cover and cook till chicken is nice tender and golden. Flip in between to avoid burning and ensure even texture.
For veggies:
In a wok heat some oil and add carrots and beans. Saute for 2 mins then cover and cook for 2-4 mins or till they get cooked but remain crunchy. Now add all other veggies and saute for 4-5 mins.
Add black pepper powder, oregano, chili flakes and salt . Again saute for 2 mins and your veggies are ready to go on plate.
For serving:
Either plate it on cabbage leaf or on sizzler plate to serve as sizzler or simply spread veggies on a plate then place chicken piece on it and finally pour some onion oregano or any sauce of your choice on it, that's it.
You can use any veggies of your choice. I kept my veggies little crunchy but if you like fully tender veggies then cook covered for some more time.
Enjoy your healthy cum yummy chicken platter in different way.
