Honey and Pepper Chicken

Ingredients

  • 250 g of chicken fillets (boneless)
  • 1 red onion 
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 4 tsp of peppercorn seeds
  • 3 tbs of honey
  •  3 tbs of butter
The marinade
  • 2 tbs of Chili powder
  • 1 tbs of turmeric powder
  • 2 tsp of salt
  • 50 ml of oil (sunflower preferred)
Garnish
  • Coriander leaf
  • Lemon wedge
Method
  • First cut the Chicken into small evenly sized cubes, next make marinade using the chili powder, turmeric powder, salt and oil, allow it to marinate at least for an hour
  • Next thinly slice and  fry the onion and the garlic until golden and set aside.
  • Next heat a medium sized pan ( something that is enough for all the meat to be spread) and cook the marinated chicken, (don't add oil as there is plenty in the marinade), until the meat is slightly crispy on the outside and tender in the inside 
  • Finely grind the pepper corn seeds and make a mixture with the honey and pepper and add that to the chicken while on the stove and cook for another 30 - 40 seconds just in cooperate the flavours into the meat ( as the meat is cooking it will absorb quickly)
To serve sprinkle some chopped coriander and wedge of lemon 

Thanks to my mates Brian and Sharmila for letting me into their house and especially into their kitchen :)
