Description

This is a Kerala version of Pepper chicken. Usually it is a spicy dish.

Note

1) You may increase or decrease pepper powder according to your spice toleration level.
2) I have used tender chicken which cooked with just 1 tbsp of water and the water oozing out of chicken. Depending on the chicken used you may add water accordingly.
