We all are familiar with ginger chicken, garlic chicken, pepper chicken and chilly chicken. But this is a different Kerala style chicken roast flavoured with green chillies and curry leaves. This is my own recipe and sharing here as it came out very well and my cousins gave me good comments that they have never tasted this flavoured chicken before ? .
