Cooking Directions

• STEP 1.In a bowl, mix together boneless chicken pieces, ginger-garlic paste, red chili powder, turmeric powder, garam masala, and salt.
• STEP 2.Add besan (gram flour) and rice flour to the chicken mixture and mix well to coat the chicken evenly.

• STEP 4.Remove the pakoras from the oil and drain on a paper towel to remove excess oil.
• STEP 5.Serve hot with green chutney and raita.

Cooking Tips

• Make sure the chicken pieces are cut into bite-sized pieces for even cooking.
• You can adjust the spice level by adding more or less red chili powder.
• For a healthier version, you can also bake the pakoras in the oven instead of deep-frying them.

Storage and Serving

• Chicken pakoras are best served hot and crispy.
• You can store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• To reheat, place the pakoras in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-7 minutes or until heated through.
