Notes:
  • You may increase or decrease the quantity of red chilli powder and pepper powder as per your spice level.
  • You may sprinkle a little water here and then to avoid burning of chicken. Do not add more water. But I did not add any water in this recipe.
  • Cooking over low or medium flame helps the chicken to cook well inside too and also tastes best.
