Updated on July 8, 2018
M K Paul profile image

I love food and love to share my recipes (mostly Indian recipes). I welcome you all to my Kitchen from my bottom of heart.

Chilli Chicken is the most common and easy Indian Chinese Cuisine. The Chinese Community of Kolkata was the founder (is said to) of Indian Chinese Cuisine for over a century. Though I am a Bengali girl from Kolkata, I am very much used to this recipe for my childhood days.

Today I cook the Dry version of Chilli Chicken. The specialty of this dish is less use of water (or no water) nothing else.

Preferable Dish for Chilli Chicken Dry

Though Chicken Chilli is a Chinese Cuisine, all Chinese main course dishes are preferable for this dish.But I specially like Mixed Veg fried rice or Simple Veg Hakka Noodles.

Health Tips:

## Ajinomoto is one of the common ingredients for all Chinese recipes. But truly speaking I never use this. It's not good for health. So if possible omit the ingredient.

## One can add more vegetable like fresh beans, chipotles, spring onion etc.It increases the health value.

## Chilli always helps to elevate your metabolism.

## Chicken Chilli Dry is a spicy dish and it brings the heat in this cold winter season.
