Chicken – 1/2 kg with bones on
Onion – 1 large sliced thinly
Green Chilli – 1 slit
Curry leaves – 2 sprig

For Grinding:

Method:

Take grinding ingredients in a blender and make into a puree. Set aside till use. 

Now take chicken in a bowl and add in salt, chilli powder and lemon juice. Mix well and let it marinate for 30 mins or so.

Now heat oil in a non stick kadai. Add in onions, curry leaves and slit green chilli. Saute till golden. 

Add in pureed masala and mix well. Cook till oil separates.

Now add in the marinated chicken and mix well. Toss well in the masala.

Cover the pan with a lid and simmer the flame. Let it cook on a low heat for 30 to 35 mins.

Now open the lid, most of the water from the chicken would have leached out and the chicken must be cooked.

Now increase the heat and evaporate all water and keep stiring.

Add in soya sauce and keep cooking the chicken on high heat. At this point the chicken would have roasted and cooked perfectly.

Switch off the flame and serve.
