    Sautéed Chicken

    Sautéed chicken is an easy lip-smacking appetizer. It can be served with any Biryani/Pulao or with Indian Flatbread. I have added Kashmiri red chili powder which gives a nice color to the dish.
    The veggies are added after the chicken is half-cooked to maintain their crunchy texture of them.

    I prepared this dish at my home during Easter. I paired it with Naatu Kozhi/Desi chicken Biryani, ChickenCutlet, and Onion Raita.

    How to prepare Sauteed Chicken

    In a large bowl add the cleaned chicken pieces.

    Add the ingredients mentioned in the “To Marinate” table.

    Mix everything well and let it rest for about 30mins – 1 hour.

    Heat a pan with oil. Once the oil gets hot add in marinated chicken pieces and start cooking.

    Cook till the chicken is half done.

    Next, add cubed onions and cubed capsicum and continue cooking.

    Once the chicken is cooked to perfection, Switch off and serve.

    Serve hot with Rice or Pulao.

    Tips

    • You can use boneless chicken also for this recipe.
    • I used Kashmiri red chili powder as it gives a nice red color to the dish. You can also use normal red chili powder
    • If using normal red chili powder adjust according to your taste as it is spicier than Kashmiri red chili powder.
