Chicken Pickle Recipe _ Chicken Pachadi _ Chicken Recipe _ Quick And Easy Chicken Pickle _ Varun

Hey guys , welcome to get curried the Nadar .

And today I'm going to make my grandmother's special recipe .

It's called chicken pickle .

Let's begin .

Pickles are best made in mustard oil .

So the first ingredient that goes in a pan is of course mustard oil , mustard oil generally is a little pungent .

So we need to get the pungency off for this .

We need to smoke this on high heat .

Another quality of smoking , this is , it increases the shelf life of the pickle while that's getting heated up .

Let's make a pickle mix or a spice mix which I'm going to use red or chilies .

Well , these are chilies that kind of give you color and not so much of pungency .

I'm gonna add in coriander seeds along with mustard seeds .

Well , these are again , ingredients that you popularly use in a pickle across the globe .

Reek or followed by peppercorns to increase the sourness .

I'm going to add in raw mango powder , which is popular in India known as Amur to this garam masala followed by ASDA or heel and last but not the least thermo powder .

We need to grind this into a fine powder while a pickle spice is getting ground .

You would have noticed that the mustard oil has begun smoking .

Let's turn the heat off completely and allow this to settle down .

Now to room temperature , let's check the spice mix .

Our spice mix is ready and our oil has also cooled down .

Let's reheat the oil .

Now , once the oil heats up , the first ingredient that goes in are some cloves of garlic .

Well , you can use garlic with skin or without .

That's a complete personal choice .

The next thing that goes in are some curry leaves .

This is followed by boneless pieces of chicken .

In this case , I have specifically used only the breast of a chicken .

Let's cook the chicken on medium flame till it's completely well done .

The chicken pieces are kind of 50% cooked .

Let's add in a pickle spices and along with this , some salt as required , let's give this a good stir and allow the chicken to cook till it's completely done .

This time .

Indian pickles are predominantly vegetarian in origin .

They're made using various vegetables .

Well , to name a few carrots , raw mangoes , lotus stem lots of them .

But very few communities actually keep the tradition of non vegetarian or meat based pickles alive .

Well , this one is one of those with this .

A chicken is done and so is the pickle , let's turn the flame off and allow this to cool down completely or at least to room temperature .

This stays perfectly well , refrigerated for three months , but make sure you use a clean spoon every time you scoop out a spoon of pickle .
