2. Turn them on each side after 5-7 mins (don't’ overcook or burn)
3. Once ready server on a nice clean plate with some carrot & cucumber and mini sliced bread

Tips:

• Serve with some homemade chutney or Schezwan sauce.
• Watch my homemade Schezwan sauce video here - https://youtu.be/KfDr44xtqPk
• If in rush skip the marination and let it sit minimum for 5-10 minutes before frying, it still tastes delicious.

Quick health gyaan:

1. Frying in Ghee reduces the glycemic index of chicken.
2. Eat in small quantity and eat it along with mini bread or mini rotis. Remember, this is an appetizer not a meal so don’t pounce on this.
3. Eating fried food is ok but restrict this to 2 times in a month and not for every day.
