Ingredients
  • • Minced chicken – 400 gm
  • • Crushed Cumin seeds – 1 tsp
  • • Red Onions – 1, medium, finely chopped
  • • Ginger garlic paste – 1 tbsp
  • • Green chillies – 3, finely chopped
  • • Coriander leaves – ¾ cup, finely chopped
  • • Mint leaves – ½ cup, finely chopped
  • • Kashmiri chilli powder – 1 tsp
  • • Crushed fennel seeds powder – ½ tsp
  • • Black pepper powder – ½ tsp
  • • Lime juice – 1 tsp
  • • Garam Masala – 1 tsp
  • • Rice flour/breadcrumbs – 2 tbsp
  • • Salt - 1- 2 tbsp
  • • Oil – 1 tbsp To garnish:
  • • Red onions – sliced
  • • Lime – cubes
Instructions
  1. • Take a bowl, add all the ingredients and mix well. Place it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes – 4 hours.
  2. • Preheat the oven to 400F
  3. • Take the mixed chicken mixture and make it to flat round shaped small balls (patties). Place in your hands; now press it gently to flatten it to round thick cutlets. You can make it to any shape you fancy.
  4. • Take a baking pan, wrap with aluminium foil, grease it with some oil and place the flat small balls.
  5. • Keep it on the oven for 15 minutes. Then take it out, turn and keep it in the oven again for 15 minutes. Cook until golden brown on both sides.
  6. (or)
  7. Pan fry: Heat a large non-stick frying pan on medium high with some olive oil. Or you can use non-stick griller for this recipe. Once the oil is hot, scoop two tablespoons of batter and drop it into the pan, then flatten it with a spatula or spoon. Don’t leave it thick; the inside will then remain uncooked. Cook until golden brown on both sides. It took 2-3 minutes for me per side. Remove and drain on paper towels. Repeat same steps with the additional batter.
  8. • Serve hot with tomato ketchup or yogurt mint dip and thinly sliced onion rings and lemon slices.
Notes
1. If you think you cannot hold them together, just add 1-2 tbsp of rice flour to the mixture.
