There are many different Pepper Chicken recipes; some are
dry and some with little gravy…. Even I have a couple of different recipes … This
recipe I got from my aunt and ever since I have been making this at least once
a month… This goes very well with Indian pulavs and flat breads… Addition of
coconut milk makes this curry very creamy…
My friend Bharathy of Spicy Chilly is hosting her first
giveaway event along with CupoNatin… If you would like to participate in this
giveaway and win exciting prizes check out her site and send in a spicy dish; I am sending this spicy Pepper Chicken Masala
to her… I love shopping through Flipkart…
