Chili Chicken(Chicken Cooked with Capsicum and Spring Onions)

Chili chicken is spicy chicken cooked with capsicum and spring onions. Extremely tasty and goes very well with all types of Indian bread. Since it is cooked in very little oil and has lots of green in it, it is very healthy. The sauces added to it give it distinct tangy flavor. I love this chicken preparation. No marination is required for making chili chicken so the preparation time is also reduced. Chili chicken is cooked on high flame if cooked on low flame it becomes chewy and rubbery.

Tips:
Do not cook the chicken on low flame it will become chewy.Too much of corn flour should not be added it is meant to hold all ingredients together.The chicken should be almost cooked before adding capsicum because capsicum and spring onions tastes nice in it when it is not over cooked.Suggested Variations:
Soy sauce can be replaced by dark soy sauce but the amount should be reduced to half.Chili chicken is meant to be spicy and hot but if you prefer less spicy then reduce the amount of green chilies and chili sauce as per taste.Amount of capsicum and spring onions can be always increased. It will enhance the taste. Comments
