Method:

Heat Coconut Oil in a pan. Add onion, curry leaves and Green chilly. When onion starts getting translucent add .Homemade Ginger Garlic Paste. Sauté it till onion gets slightly browned. Reduce the flame. Now add Fennel seeds powder, Turmeric powder, Homemade Garam Masala Powder and Chicken Masala powder along with the remaining 1 tbsp of Black pepper.

My Recipe Notes on Black Pepper Chicken Roast:
1. To avoid odor of chicken wash it with few drops of Vinegar or lemon juice.
2. Use Non-Stick pan preferably for cooking this.
3. It sounds great if you add Bell Pepper too with this, but reduce the quantity of onion in that case as it gives more sweetness.
4. Caramelisation of onion gives it a natural sweetness and it mitigates the heat from the black pepper.
5. It goes well with rice and also with rotis, tortillas, etc.,
6. You can make this dish by using boneless, skinless chicken or chicken thighs, but make cut it in to small pieces..
7. Adjust the seasoning as per your taste.
8. You can use pepper powder instead of freshly crushed black pepper.
9. Garnish with coriander leaves. (I didn’t as I was not having the fresh ones.J
10. Be careful while adding salt. We have already added salt for marinating!
11. I always use garlic more than usually required in curries because of its medicinal value. You can reduce it a sper your taste.
12. At the finishing stage take care to prevent it from burning.

Serve it with Chappathi, Naan, Rice or Roti..

Happy Cooking..
Cheers..
