Pepper Chicken Dry Recipe with step by step pictures. Spicy and flavourful chicken dish with black pepper flavour.
Pepper Chicken Dry Recipe
Yesterday i had my baby shower celebrations in a traditional way. I am brought to my mum's place and i will be here until i get my love in my hands. My hands are filled with so many glass bangles and it is really a lovely experience hearing those sounds. I am loving each seconds. I will be sharing my baby shower pictures very soon in facebook.
Now coming back to today's recipe, it is a chicken recipe and my favorite one. I have already posted chinese style pepper chicken recipe in my blog before. This is my Indian version of it. It has lots of Indian masala and stuffs in it. I love this one when served with naan or hot rice. I hope you will love it and let me know what you think.

Hi aarthy..in this recipy did u add any chillypowder. I make this easterday it is little yellowish color,yours is dark brown in color. Plz Clarify it.I am your regular blog visiter.congratulations for ur baby shower..
Aarthi
@meera nair No i didn't add any chilli powder, The colour depends on the brand of spice powders which we use. my coriander powder is a home milled one, so it gives a darker colour to the curry. And also the colour comes from the browning of the onions. I hope they tasted good.

Thanks for sharing the receipe. Am trying this for the first time today. Hope my mom and sister likes it. Will share the outcome once done.
Murali
Done with the cooking Aarthi. It was good and my sister liked it very much!!! However, the chicken wasn't juicy. It was too dry.
In general while cooking is there some method to keep chicken juicy till it is served??? Please suggest.

It tastes yumm..tried it..v loved it ..! 🙂
Aarthi
@MuraliIf you want your chicken juicy, you have cook to cook it low and slow. Cooking in a cooker helps it turn out juicy and soft

Thank you for the recipe it looks yummy 🙂 My family is new to Indian cooking. I am an experienced cook but am unfamiliar with some of the ingredients. Are curry leaves the same as curry powder? if not what are the difference and what do I look for at the market? How hot spicy is this recipe? I have never used so much black pepper in a single dish...I am very interested in trying this so I look forward to your reply. Thank you again, tpm
Aarthi
@Anonymouscurry leaf is not curry powder, These leaves will come from a plant.
This dish is a bit spicy, you can reduce it as per your taste

Thank you very much for your reply. It's really good.
Shalabh
Wow looks wonderful.
I was just wondering, why haven't you added tomatoes? Also, I read somewhere that coconut milk is to be used.
Will the dish be something different if I add tomatoes and coconut milk?
Aarthi
@Shalabhthis is a different style of recipe

@Anonymous add some tomato puree and adjust with some salt and a little sugar and make it like a curry. You can add some pureed coconut or cashew puree too

I tried this recipe and it is very tasty.The stepwise procedure with images is very good and easy to understand.

Good Recipe. I tried this and it's extremely good. One suggestion add more onion for more gravy(or is there any other idea?).I know this dish is best in the dry form but my north Indian roommate loved it with more gravy.
