Notes
Carry out the entire process in low – medium flame. High flame might burn the chicken as we are shallow frying it.
Do not close the pan while frying it might increase the moisture content with the chicken.
Marinate the chicken overnight for juicy chicken fry. If you are in a hurry you can also marinate by keeping in freezer for half an hour.
