Dry Chicken Chilli

Ingredients for marination

250 grams boneless chicken
½ tbsp. chilli sauce
½ tbsp. soya sauce
¼ tsp pepper powder
¾ tsp. vinegar
2 tbsps. Corn flour
¼ tsp. red chili powder
Salt little
1 egg white for ½ kg chicken (optional)

Seasoning

¾ tbsp. soya sauce
1 tsp chilli sauce
½ tsp. red chilli powder
½ tsp. sugar

Veggies

1 small onion thinly sliced
¾ tbsp. garlic
¼ cup  capsicum
1 to 2 green chilies slit and deseeded
1 sprig of spring onion chopped (optional)
4 to 5 leaves of celery chopped finely (optional)
Spring onions for garnish

Method

Marinate chicken with chilli sauce, soya sauce, pepper powder and vinegar. Set aside for at least 45 minutes. 2 hours is best. Meanwhile you could chop your onions,capsicum and make the sauce ready for seasoning.
Sprinkle the flours on the chicken along with salt and mix well. Add chili powder. If you wish to use egg, you can add it now. Mix well.
Prepare the sauce .Add ¾ tbsp. soya sauce, 1 tsp. chili sauce, ½ tsp. red chili powder and ½ tsp sugar (optional) to a bowl and mix well.
Heat oil in a pan and deep or shallow fry till the chicken is done. Keep stirring to fry evenly. Do not over fry, it tends to turn hard. It can also be grilled at 240 C for 20 to 25 minutes in a preheated oven for a healthier version.
Remove off excess oil from the pan, just keep 2 spoons oil in the pan. Add garlic fry for about a min, add onions, capsicum, spring onions, and celery and green chilies and fry till they turn slightly soft for about a minute or so.
Pour the sauce that was prepared at step 3. Let the sauces bubble up well.
Add the fried chicken, saute on high flame for 2 to 3 minutes.
Serve chilli chicken hot as appetizer with fried rice or noodles.

Tip: If your chicken is not tender, you can even soak it in buttermilk for 45mins to 2 hours. It tenderizes the meat very well. drain off completely and use.
