This is a recipe from one of my cousins residing in Saudi Arabia, it is very easy to make and can be eaten hot or cold.
Ingredients
- 2lb chicken cut into 8 pieces (with or without bones), wash and drain in a colander
- 2 cups cornflakes
- 1 tbs garam masala
- 1 tbs (reduce to taste) red chillies
- 1 tbs salt (or to taste)
- 1 cup cooking oil (for healthy alternative use Olive oil)
- SWITCH ON OVEN TO MEDIUM HEAT GM 5/6
Method
- Add cornflakes into a plastic bag, crush with a rolling pin (or run in a food processor) – until coarsely ground. Add dry spices, mix well and remove into a flat plate.
- Dip chicken pieces in oil, then press into cornflakes mixture and press down until fully covered with dry mixture. Cover each piece of chicken and place in an ovenproof dish.
- Place the dish in the oven and bake uncovered for 30mins, turn over each piece with a tong and return to the oven for a further 15mins or until chicken is fully cooked.
- Serve with mashed potatoes or potato wedges and the Dry Plum Chutney.
