Ingredients:

300 Grams chicken boneless strips or fillets
1/2 cup buttermilk (or yogurt/ curd)
1 1/2 tbsp corn flour
salt to taste
1 1/2 tsp ginger garlic paste
1/8 tsp turmeric or haldi
1/4 to 1/2 tsp red chili powder
oil for deep frying or for pan frying which ever you chose to
seasoning
1 tbsp oil
2 cloves garlic chopped
2 green chilies
1 sprig curry leaves
handful mint leaves or pudina leaves
1 tbsp soya sauce
1/4 to 1/2 tsp red chili powder
1/2 tsp Garam masala powder
3 tbsp Yogurt (thick curd) (do not use sour one)

Recipe Instructions:

To make majestic chicken
wash and cut chicken to strips to around 2 1/2 inches length.
Soak them in buttermilk and salt for at least 20 mins if deep frying.
Keep for 2 to 4 hours if you wish to pan fry or bake.
Drain up the buttermilk and add ginger garlic paste, turmeric, corn flour and red chili powder.
Mix well and set aside for at least 10 mins.
If frying in oil
deep fry on a medium heat.
If you fry on a low heat, the chicken will turn out hard and if you fry on very high heat, the chicken will not be cooked well from inside.
So once the oil is hot, reduce it to medium, wait for a min and then add chicken pieces to oil.
Fry till these are lightly golden.
Remove it to a kitchen tissue.
If grilling in oven
preheat the oven to 180 c for about 15 to 20 mins.
Then place the chicken on a greased tray or put them on skewers.
Grill them for 8 mins on each side or until done.
Adjust the time as needed depending on the oven.
