Step 1:Chicken Marination & frying.
Mix all the above ingredients & allow it to marinate for at least 15 mins.
The marinade not only provides amazing flavour to the chicken, it acts as a protective coating which seals moisture inside the chicken and also prevents the chicken from overcooking.
Deep fry the chicken on medium flame. You can also shallow fry if you want to avoid deep frying.
