I have been longing to make these tea time snacks and I thought if winters are going on in India, then this is the best time to make them and post this recipe.
Having them as snacks with a hot cup of tea or one can have them as starters too… Some love to call it as chicken pakodi or pakoda and they are crispy from outside when eaten hot and taste the best.
South Indian regions prefer to make pakodas with chicken mainly in andhra region and in andhra style and this pakoda recipe is made all over India with many variations…
There are many chicken dry or fry recipes and here chicken is deep fried and not stir fried. This is made with boneless chicken and all the snack recipes or chicken deep fried recipes should be made with boneless.
Here I have used besan or chick pea flour as the coating to the chicken but one can also use rice flour as the coating… I have also sprinkled some curry leaves and green chillies into the oil while deep frying and they give an amazing aroma to the deep fried chicken pakodi.
Chicken Pakora is a simple recipe where it is mixed with some spices and flour and deep fried in oil, which are perfect to enjoy in a bachelor party or a gathering with friends or kitty parties or during evenings…
Chicken pakoda can be made in various versions and here I would like to share two versions of making chicken pakoda which are absolutely delicious in taste and can be made any time of the day like they can be served with dal recipes as side dishes or can be eaten as plain snacks…

This below video is another pakora recipe made with chicken which is slightly different from the earlier one… Do check this video out to know more about this second style of making this chicken starter.
In this video I have marinated the chicken with spices such salt, red chilli powder, haldi powder, garam masala powder, ginger garlic paste and herbs such as coriander leaves, chopped curry leaves, chopped green chillies. Also they are marinated with corn flour, maida, egg, food color and mixed well..
I tell you this is the best chicken pakora that has even been made by me and tastes more than delicious. Also check out other starter recipes of mine such as chicken kebab which is again a simple chicken starter.
The chicken starters when deep fried or barbecued have to be deep fried well in order to let the whole flavors of the ingredients that are added to be absorbed well… Followed by deep frying gives a juicy and crispy taste to this chicken starter dish…
