Roasted masala chicken fry is an inspiration from my own recipe malli milagu chicken. Best goes with steamed rice and rasam on those days with cold and cough. Also suits for chapati/ghee rice. 

It is a spicy chicken fry – marinated with roasted powders. 4 Main ingredients in this fry are garlic, ginger, chilli powder and coriander powder. chilli powder and coriander powder are roasted till dark brown and used for marination. The color of the powder is almost darkest brown/ black that it makes chicken fry to be called dark chicken or black chicken.

Pictorial directions for roasted masala chicken fry:

Clean and cut chicken pieces to smaller size or as desired. Dry Roast coriander powder to dark brown in simmer and keep it aside to cool. Again, dry roast chilli powder to dark brown and keep it aside in a plate to cool. Caution: While roasting chilli powder, keep the kitchen ventilated. it creates very strong aroma and causes cough. Hence roast it quick.

• Heat oil, saute sliced onions, ginger garlic paste and red chilli until onions turn brown.
