Pan Roasted Chicken Strips

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.

Preparation Time : 15 Min's | Marination Time : 30 Min's | Cooking time : 8 Min's approx

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.
