Anthony’s Desi Chili Chicken
I like Chinese Dishes, if it is cooked properly.
I like their prawn dishes, and I always order Chowmein with gravy.
The one they serve with lots of steamed vegetables , the noodles baked at best, but not fried in that horrible mix of Oil and Soya sauce. Somehow, I don’t like soya sauce with every dish. Sans the Soya, Chilli Chicken tastes great.
I like cooking in different ways and my Kitchen is a Laboratory, I had even posted a healthy Chicken dish cooked without oil, in my previous Blog. By the way, I might move to TypePad soon. Without categories, a recipe blog don’t look like a cook blog.
OK, the Chicken Chilli, oh yeah, I promise I will put up the pictures soon. I always forget to photograph them. This is a very simple recipe. You could cook it today..
Ingredients:
Half a kilo of chicken cut small, an inch cube.
1 tsp each Whole Jeera and powder,
1 tsp coriander powder.
A pinch of heeng( Asafoetida)
Dried Kasuri Meethi.
1 inch finger of ginger and about 15 cloves of garlic Chopped well.
5-10 Green Chillis, sliced in halves ( the more the hotter, not necessarily tastier).Use depending upon your capacity to withstand 
Preparation:
1. Heat 2 Tbs oil in a deep non-stick kadhai (for this U don’t need a Aluminium or cast iron kadhai Like I always suggest, non stick works just fine).
2. Add the Whole Jeera and let it crackle, then add a pinch of heeng.
3. Add the Chicken, and keep tossing with a wooden Spatula.
(Water will come out of the chicken.)
4. Add salt to taste.
Fry the chicken till meat and oil separates.
5. Add the Green Chilli and chopped ginger-garlic.
Fry for about 10 minutes, keep tossing
6. Add the Kasuri Meethi, then Sprinkle the jeera and dhania powder.
It will be done After 5 minutes. Garnish with coriander.
Eat with Dal and Rice. Yummmm

@ gili: Thx for visiting. It is the dried leaves of meethi(fenugreek). the dis is just fine without that. I added it because I had bought a huge packet of the same and have been adding in every dish. LOL it gives a nice flavour and it is suppose to be good for health
kasthuri methis sure adds lots of flavour to any dish..in fact its asafoetida which is the interesting ingredient in the chicken dish.Sounds yummy..:)
Chilli Chicken is my favorite! what is kasuri meethi?
