Green chilly chicken

 

 

What started out as Andhra Chilly chicken turned out to be a less oil toned out version of the same.But definitely as tasty or even tastier due to the less heat index of the dish.May be to get closer to the NAGARJUNA CHILLY CHICKEN,I should increase the Jalapenos used or grind and put it in and use Bone-in chicken instead of the boneless breast I used.Though there are less takers for spicy food at my place I think the toned down version works better for me.
