Spicy Chicken fry with Fennel seeds and Almonds

A few weeks ago on one sunday I said to him that i am bored of eating chicken masala and also said i don't want to eat deep fried things also. Then he said ok and told that he will cook for me... i cooked biriyani and he cooked this chicken fry...i would definitely say this is the best chicken recipe i ever tasted before. He made this several times by now, but still I'm not bored of it. The thing i liked the most in this recipe is the flavor of the fennel seeds and secondly the crunchiness of almonds.
