When ever i don't feel like cooking, it is my hubby who cooks for me. Mostly he cooks non vegetarian and Chinese food. This is one of his signature recipe which i like most. This is easy to make, very quick and if you have barbecue then this is the perfect recipe. As i don't have barbecue grill, i used dosa tawa and cooked it. It hardly took 8 min's to cook. Try this, you will surely love it.

Ingredients
- 1/4 kg Chicken fillets
- 2 tbsp Chilly powder
- 1/2 tsp Turmeric powder
- 2 tbsp Fennel seeds
- Egg white from 1 large Egg
- Salt to taste
- 3 tbsp of Olive Oil
Method
- Wash the chicken fillets thoroughly and wipe with the kitchen towel . Slice the chicken fillets into flat/thin strips. Pound or beat each strips gently with the back of the knife to flatten them and keep aside.
- Place the fennel seeds in mortar and pestle and ground to a coarse powder. In a large bowl place chilly powder, turmeric powder, ground fennel seeds, salt and mix well. Add egg white to the spice mixture and make it to a thick batter consistency.
- Take the chicken strips one by one and coat them with the batter evenly.
- Heat the flat tawa and spread 1 tbsp of oil over the tawa. Place the chicken strips without touching each other and drizzle 1/2 tbsp oil over the chicken cook for 4 minutes. Then flip the other side and drizzle the remaining oil over the chicken and cook till its done or for another 3 min's.
- When cooked transfer to a plate and squeeze lemon juice over the hot chicken strips and serve immediately.
P.S :
- While cooking the chicken strips do not press them with the spatula, it will make chicken hard.
- Taste best when served hot.
