Chicken in Red Sauce

I find it a no fuss recipe...

Servings: 4
Cuisine: Italian

Ingredients:

• Boneless chicken, 750 gm ( cut into medium pieces)
• Tomato, 2
• Garlic cloves, 6
• Red chilli flakes, 1 tsp
• Black pepper powder, 1 tsp
• Dry oregano, 1 tsp
• Lemon juice, 1 tbsp
• Butter, 1 tbsp
• Olive Oil, 3 tbsp (you can use refined oil)
• Cornstarch, 2 tsp, dissolved in 1/4 cup water.
• Salt to taste

Method:

1.Wash chicken well. Marinate with lemon juice, a pinch of salt, black pepper powder and keep aside.

2. Roast garlic on direct flame and cool them down. Cut tomatoes into halves. Peel garlic cloves. In a blender put tomato, roasted garlic, red chilli flakes and blend.

3.In a pan add 2 tbsp oil and then add butter. Oil will prevent butter from burning. Keep the flame lower. Add marinated chicken pieces, stir little and cover with a lid. Cook for 5 minutes or until chicken turns soft.

4.As the chicken turns soft, transfer them in a plate. In the same pan heat 1 tbsp oil and then the tomato-garlic paste. Season with salt to taste. As oil starts coming out from the edges of sauce, and chicken pieces. 

 5.Add dissolved cornstarch. Combine well and cook for 2 minutes. Turn off the flame. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve.

Serving suggestion: serve with Fried Rice . O:-) :-)
