Red Hot Chicken Curry Recipe
by Divya Pramil

Red hot chicken curry is a spicy, aromatic and simple recipe made with Indian spices. It goes well with Rice, Idli, Dosa and all Indian bread varieties. The recipe tastes so good but it is very simple to prepare. I always opt for skinless chicken because the skin consists of approximately 75% of the total fat, but this time I preferred taste, so opted for chicken with skin, once in a while won't hurt you and this recipe tastes good only when you use chicken with skin. I love this curry with crispy dosas, yum!! Now lets go to the recipe.
