Pepper chicken is a spicy and flavorful dish that combines tender chicken pieces with a generous amount of black pepper and aromatic spices. It is a popular dish in Indian and Asian cuisine. Here is a recipe for pepper chicken:

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Ready Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients:
  • 500 grams boneless chicken, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 teaspoons ginger-garlic paste
  • 2 green chilies, slit lengthwise
  • 1 teaspoon black peppercorns, crushed
  • 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 1 teaspoon red chili powder (adjust to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon garam masala
  • Salt to taste
  • Fresh coriander leaves, chopped (for garnish)
  • Lemon wedges (for serving)
Instructions:
  1. Heat oil in a large pan or skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add the chopped onions to the pan and sauté until they turn golden brown.
  3. Add ginger-garlic paste and green chilies to the pan. Sauté for a minute until the raw smell disappears.
  4. Add crushed black peppercorns and cumin seeds to the pan. Stir and cook for a minute to release their flavors.
  5. Add turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt to taste. Mix well to coat the onions and spices evenly.
  6. Add the chicken pieces to the pan and cook until they turn white and start to brown slightly. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  7. Reduce the heat to low and cover the pan. Let the chicken cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until it is cooked through and tender. Stir occasionally.
  8. Remove the lid and increase the heat to medium. Cook for a few more minutes to allow any excess moisture to evaporate and to intensify the flavors.
  9. Sprinkle garam masala over the chicken and mix well to coat the chicken with the spices.
  10. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, to let the flavors meld together.
  11. Remove the pan from heat and garnish the pepper chicken with freshly chopped coriander leaves.
  12. Serve the pepper chicken hot with steamed rice, naan, roti, or bread of your choice.
  13. Accompany the dish with lemon wedges for squeezing over the chicken, if desired.

Note: Cooking times may vary depending on the size and thickness of the chicken pieces. Adjust the cooking time accordingly to ensure that the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
