Kerala Chicken Fry

Difficulty: Beginner Prep Time 20 mins Cook Time 15 mins Total Time 6 hrs 35 mins
Servings: 8

Description

The overnight marination in yogurt, ginger-garlic, and a blend of warm spices combined with the frying in coconut oil, and the addition of curry leaves, creates a delicious succulent, Kerala-style Fried Chicken.

Ingredients:

For pan-fried garnish

Instructions

Video
  1. Add all the ingredients to the chicken pieces and rub well. You can make some gashes over the flesh to help penetrate the spices more evenly. The marinade should be a thick coating and not runny.
  2. Marinate at least 5 hours or overnight, covered tightly in the refrigerator.
  3. Bring to room temperature before frying.
  4. Heat coconut oil for shallow frying in a frying pan, preferably with deep edges. Add one layer of chicken pieces to the pan, without overcrowding. Shallow-fry in coconut oil till the bottom is dark golden brown on a regulated medium heat.
  5. Turn over and fry the other side. Do not over fry. I usually cook about 5 minutes per side.
  6. Fry all the chicken pieces in batches, till done. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  7. In the remaining oil in the pan, add the ‘Ingredients for pan-fried garnish’_ . Stir just for 10 seconds* so that the onion rings absorb the spices in the oil and quickly remove everything with a slotted spoon. You don’t really want to cook the onion. It should just soak up some of the masalas in the oil.
  8. Remove the ingredients from the pan and garnish the chicken with this.
  9. Serve with flatbreads or just on its own. It’s delicious.
