You all must have tried chicken tikka and tangri kebabs but i bet this is one excellent dish that i have just learnt from my helper and its soooooo easy and quick as well as makes a wnderful dish. A must try
My recommendation: Highest
So try it now
Ingredients:
Chicken cut into pieces..take the one with the bones
Dark Soya Sauce - 2 tsp
Light soya Sauce - 2 tsp
Garlic paste -1 tsp
Black pepper - a pinch or two
Refind oil - 1 tbsp
Thats it..
Method:
1.Mix the soya sauce both dark and light with chicken and garlic paste.
2.Sprinkle black pepper powder on it and cover, marinate it for an hour.
3.Take oil in a karai and put the chicken in it and cook for 5-10 minutes on high flame turning just one to two times.
4. Cover and slow the flame and let it cook for another 10 to 15 min until done and stirring it two three times in between.
5. It should be dry when done and the top skin should be a lttle reddish should give a feeling of kebabs.
It doesn't need salt as soya sauce is salty but if its less for you just sprinkle some as per ur taste.
This is one of the most handy dishes that i have learnt...chicken is cooked so perfectly and soya leaves an excellent texture and flavour....it's a must try !!!
