Andhra Pepper Chicken is a flavorful chicken recipe which can be eaten as a starter or with an accompaniment. I tasted it once when I visited Hyderabad. And than tried at home, it turns out so delicious that my family finished the entire dish at one go. Andhra pepper chicken can be your simple yet guilt-free indulgence. It has a burst of spicy flavors from the pepper and garlic tempering and the tender chicken that will melt in your mouth. This recipe is healthier than the regular pepper chicken as we have reduced the amount of oil used in the recipe.
