How to make pepper chicken recipe Kerala style also known as chicken peralan or chicken kurumilagu peratiyathu is a dry recipe where chicken is coated with pepper masala base and dried/roasted.

this is also called as varatiyathu as we let it to cook in simmer until dry and roasted. we usually cook the chicken pepper fry (nadan chicken peralan) but during my recent visit to ernakulam, it had a twist of roasted coconut topped over and that flavour was just taking the dish a step higher.
