Description

Chicken 65 is an easy fried Indian appetizer or main dish that's full of spicy flavor--and calls for simple ingredients!

Ingredients

1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
2 teaspoons ginger-garlic paste
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup vegetable oil for frying

Directions

1 Pat chicken pieces dry, leaving a bit of moisture as this will help in binding the ingredients. Combine ginger-garlic paste, chili powder, flour, 1 teaspoon oil, and salt in a bowl; mix nicely. Coat each piece of chicken with the mixture.
2 Heat 1 cup oil in a deep skillet over medium heat.
3 Fry chicken pieces in batches in the hot oil until golden brown and no longer pink in the centers, 5 to 7 minutes per batch, making sure not to overcrowd. Drain on paper towels. Serve hot.
