Ingredients

  • 500g boneless chicken, cut into small pieces
  • 1 cup yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons ginger-garlic paste
  • 2 tablespoons red chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon turmeric powder
  • 1 tablespoon garam masala
  • 1 tablespoon cumin powder
  • 1 tablespoon coriander powder
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Salt to taste
  • Oil for deep frying

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, combine yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, red chili powder, turmeric powder, garam masala, cumin powder, coriander powder, lemon juice, and salt. Mix well to make a marinade.
  • Add the chicken pieces to the marinade and mix until all the pieces are well coated. Cover the bowl and let the chicken marinate for at least 1 hour, or overnight in the refrigerator for best results.
  • Heat oil in a deep pan or kadai over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully drop the marinated chicken pieces into the oil, a few at a time. Fry until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes.
  • Remove the chicken popcorn from the oil using a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess oil.
  • Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce or chutney. Enjoy!
