1. Cut the chicken into bite size pieces.rnSet it aside.
2. Mix together the marinade of ground ginger, ground shallots, Kashmiri chili, and coriander
3. Pour the marinade into the bowl of chicken bites.
4. Mix everything together well.
5. Pour in the lemon juice.
6. Stir things up well , salt to taste, and set it aside in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
7. While the chicken is chilling, mix together the gluten free coating of rice flour, sorghum flour, and cornstarch
8. Beat the egg and set it aside in a separate bowl.
9. While the marinated chicken is chilling prep the yogurt sauce.rnMix together the shallot, and ginger.
10. In a separate bowl whip the yogurt, add in the Kashmiri chili, lemon juice and spices. Set it aside.
11. Pour the oil into a deep pot, wok or kadhai. Bring it to 350 degrees.rnWhen the oil is hot dip each chicken piece into the egg mixture.
12. Dredge the chicken in the gluten free coating and plop it into the hot oil. I cooked the chicken in batches of 4 or 5 pieces.
13. Cook each batch of chicken for about 6 minutes.rnAs they cook place them on a paper towel covered plate to drain.
14. Here is where the paths diverge on Chicken '65. Some people prefer to fry their chicken and then use the yogurt as a spicy dipping sauce. This recipe is a bit different. The yogurt sauce is heated and the chicken put back in until the yogurt is absorbed. Here's how that works.
15. Heat 3 Tbs of oil in a skillet or wok.rnWhen the oil is hot toss in the chopped ginger, shallot or garlic and stir fry everything for about 30 seconds.
16. Add the friend chicken pieces to the pan, then add the seasoned yogurt to everything.
17. Stir the yogurt mixture into the pan and mix everything together well.
18. When the yogurt is absorbed into the chicken it's done.rnPlate it, sprinkle it with a bit of chopped fresh cilantro and serve it up!
19. The important thing to look out for in this recipe, is not letting the crispy coating become un-crispy and peeling off while heating the chicken in the yogurt sauce. It worked fine for us, but I think next time I may save myself a roller coaster ride and just serve the spiced yogurt sauce on the side for dipping. So there you have it, the mystery dish, from the mystery place, that's loved throughout India. Sometimes you have to stop wondering about where something comes from and just shut up and eat it, which is what we did.
