Chicken Sukka: Spicy Indian Treat
Chicken Sukka is a special type of Indian recipe. Most Indian chicken recipes are either curries or fries. But Chicken Sukka is a bit of both. This is a dry chicken gravy. The chicken is fried with the masala and then cooked in very little water. The chicken cooks in the oil and the steam produced by covering the pan.
You can have Chicken Sukka both as a snacks or a dinner recipe. It tastes great as a starter with drinks. But you can also have it with rotis for a proper meal. Any dry chicken dish tastes much spicier than curries. This is because the spices are much more concentrated in dry preparations. So if you are making Chicken Sukka at home, be prepared to taste a steaming hot Indian chicken recipe.
