South Indian Pepper Chicken
- 1 chicken drumsticks Skinless
- 2 tablespoons ginger garlic paste
- 3 fresh coriander bunchs
- 4 fresh mint bunchs
- 5 green chillies Fresh, 2- 3, more if you can handle it, less if you think onions are too spicy
- 6 teaspoons fresh ground black pepper
- 7 curry leaves 6- 8, I love my curry leaves. Rich in iron and absolutely yummy!
- 8 tablespoons oil
- 9 salt to taste
- Grind the fresh coriander, mint, and green chillies along with the ginger/garlic into a fine paste.
- In a baandley (the Indian version of a Wok) or any non-stick cookware of your choice, heat the oil and drop the curry leaves in.
- Add the ground paste to the now sizzling curry leaves and stir the mixture for a minute.
- Gently place the chicken drumsticks into the baandley, and coat all of it with the coriander & mint paste.
- Turn down the heat to medium, and add salt and black pepper to the chicken.
- Cover and cook for 2-3 minutes or until the chicken is soft.
- Keeping the chicken uncovered will result in a tough and rubbery texture that is quite unpleasant unless you are a connoisseur of edible leather.
- Keep turning the chicken to ensure that all sides get fully cooked.
- Once done, the pepper chicken may be served hot as an appetizer, or for the carb conscious, a meal in itself.
