Easy and delicious pan fried chicken recipe

buttermilk

🥗Healthier: low-fat yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + vinegar

Low-fat yogurt reduces calories while maintaining tanginess.

all-purpose flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

💰Cheaper: cornmeal

Whole wheat flour adds fiber, while cornmeal gives a crunchy texture.

vegetable oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Avocado oil has a higher smoke point and is healthier.

fresh herbs

🥗Healthier: dried herbs

💰Cheaper: none

Dried herbs are more cost-effective and have a longer shelf life.

Marinate chicken with olive oil, lemon juice, sliced onion, garlic paste, ginger paste, ground red chilli, ground turmeric, ground coriander, crushed black pepper, roasted cumin and coriander seeds, garam masala, and salt to taste.

Heat cooking oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Add cumin seeds and bay leaves to the skillet and sauté until fragrant.

Add marinated chicken pieces to the skillet and fry until cooked through and golden brown, turning occasionally.

Add unsalted butter towards the end of cooking for extra flavor.

Garnish with roughly chopped coriander leaves and fresh chillies before serving.
