Method To Make Chilli Chipotle Chicken:

  • Step 2: Heat the oil in a wok or pan. Add the chopped garlic and sauté briefly until fragrant.
  • Step 3: Add the red onion and toss over high heat.
  • Step 4: Add the green, red and yellow capsicums and stir-fry, keeping them slightly crisp.
  • Step 5: Add the chipotle peppers in adobo sauce and mix well.
  • Step 6: Pour in the fresh cream, followed by the sugar and seasoning. Stir until the sauce is smooth and evenly combined.
  • Step 7: Add the Fried chicken and toss over high heat until every piece is well coated with the chipotle sauce.
  • Step 8: Add the jalapeño chilli and toss lightly.
  • Step9: Transfer to a serving dish and finish with the crisp samosa patti strips. Serve immediately.

Keep the flame high while tossing the vegetables so they retain their colour and crunch. The chipotle peppers bring a deep smokiness and gentle heat, while the cream balances the sauce with richness. Add the crisp pastry strips only before serving so they do not lose their texture.
