السلام عليكم و رحمة الله و بركاته

Chettinad chicken curry recipe is another of the very versatile dishes from the chettinad cuisine. It is a mouth watering and a masaledaar chicken curry  recipe which is again made with aromatic spices and chicken.

Chettinad cuisine is a very popular cuisine from the South Indian state of Tamil Nadu. And me, having grown up in Chennai, the capital of Tamil Nadu, was naturally inclined towards this amazing South Indian cuisine.

This dish is a Tamilian curry recipe which pairs well whether it is eaten with roti, chapati, nan, plain rice or even khichdi and is a popular dish all across India and mainly in the South. You can find the chettinad mutton curry and chettinad egg masala too on my blog.

This chettinad chicken curry is a amazingly delicious curry and is full of  gravy as the curry requires onions and yogurt to make it.

This is however an easy recipe and gets cooked pretty fast when we get our spices ready. Like the chicken chukka recipe, this is also one of those recipes, which require us to add curry leaves into the chicken masala.

I find it amusing every time I add the curry leaves to any non-veg recipe. As we aren’t used to adding the curry leaves to the non-vegetarian dishes, every time I add them I find it very interesting. But then we have to stick to the authenticity of the dish and do full justice if we are going to make the chettinad cuisine.

This South Indian / tamilian cuisine is known widely for the use of the spices, and I was no way gonna mess with it. I love this Tamilian Cuisine that there are very few other cuisines that can beat it for me.

Remember to get to good quality chicken to make this chettinad chicken curry recipe. As you must be knowing the meat plays a huge part on the outcome of the dish.

Enjoy making this recipe and serving with roti or nan or plain steamed rice or khichdi.

So let’s get started with the chettinad chicken curry recipe
