Hyderabad Chicken 65

In a bowl, combine chicken pieces with yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, red chili powder, turmeric powder, salt, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly. Allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Once our chicken has marinated, it's time to add the rice flour. Sprinkle it over the chicken and mix everything together thoroughly until the chicken is evenly coated.

Now, let's heat up some oil in a kadhai until it's nice and hot. Carefully add our marinated chicken pieces into the hot oil and deep fry them until they're beautifully crisp and golden brown.

For the tempering, let's heat up some oil in a pan. Once it's hot, add in our green chilies, garlic, and curry leaves, and sauté them until they become fragrant. Now, let's add in our fried chicken pieces and give them a good toss to coat them with all those flavorful spices. Finally, sprinkle in some black pepper powder and toss everything together once more for that extra kick of flavor.
