#chickenrecipes - This is a signature dish of Goa. It is generally made with pork, but I tried it out with chicken. The taste was simply delicious and very spicy. So it is obviously not for the faint hearted. I had it with some veg. biryani, but can be had with naan or chapatti too. The presence of vinegar gave the dish a tangy taste along with the fiery taste from the chilies. You can always substitute the chilli powder with whole dry red chilies.
