Indian food is not all about murgh makhani and chicken tikka masala, this recipe is very different and one of my favourite dishes. From Tamilnadu in South India, Chettinad chicken curry is quite fiery. There's no reason why you can't reduce the chilies to suit your own palate though. While Chettinad chicken goes perfectly with Dosa or Appams, it tastes equally good with Parathas (pan-fried Indian flatbread) and even plain.

Instructions to make Chettinad pepper chicken curry:

1. Heat oil in wide pan. Add mustard seeds, cumin, cardamom, clove and cinnamon. - - Once mustard crackled completely add chopped onion, bit salt and saute it.
2. Now add turmeric powder, ginger garlic paste, curry leaves, green chilli. Saute this for couple of minutes. - - Add finely chopped tomatoes, red chilli powder, coriander powder, cumin powder and mix it. Close with lid and cook it for 5 minutes in medium flame.
3. Now add chicken to the pan and mix well. Cover with lid and cook in medium heat until chicken done completely. - - I use only country chicken so it takes bit more time to cook and it won't oozes extra water. So, I added 1/2 cup of water to cook the chicken.
4. If you use store bought chicken it oozes more water by itself so you don't want to add any extra water to the chicken to cook. - - When the chicken is almost done, add crushed pepper and saute it. Open the lid and cook for another 5 minutes in medium flame. - - Garnish with coriander leaves and serve hot with rice or roti. #mycookbook
