Ingredients:

  • 1 lb boneless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 cup chickpea flour (besan)
  • 2 tablespoons rice flour
  • 1 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste
  • 1 green chili, finely chopped (adjust to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 1
    teaspoon coriander seeds, crushed
  • 1 teaspoon garam masala
  • ½ teaspoon turmeric powder
  • ½ teaspoon red chili powder (adjust to taste)
  • Salt to taste
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Water, as needed
  • Oil for frying

Instructions:

  1. Marinating the Chicken:

    • In a large mixing bowl, combine the chicken pieces with ginger-garlic paste, chopped green chili, cumin seeds, crushed coriander seeds, garam masala, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly. Allow it to marinate for at least 30 minutes to enhance the flavors.

  2. Preparing the Batter:

    • In a separate bowl, combine chickpea flour (besan), rice flour, and chopped fresh cilantro. Gradually add water while stirring to form a smooth, thick batter. The consistency should be similar to pancake batter.

  3. Coating the Chicken:

    • Heat oil in a deep frying pan or kadhai over medium heat.
    • Dip each marinated chicken piece into the batter, ensuring it is well coated on all sides.

  4. Frying the Pakoras:

    • Carefully place the coated chicken pieces into the hot oil, one at a time, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
    • Fry the pakoras in batches until they are golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes per batch. Flip them occasionally for even cooking.

  5. Draining and Serving:

    • Once cooked, remove the chicken pakoras from the oil using a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

  6. Serving Suggestions:

    • Serve hot with mint chutney, tamarind chutney, or your favorite dipping sauce.
    • Enjoy as a snack or appetizer with tea or coffee.
