Chicken combo recipe

Chicken fry could combo recipe . This is totally a fun recipe ...why? Because of the colour , texture, soft and juicy and ofcourse they way it's plated will bring your tummy rumbling. Whenever I buy chicken , my kids protest not to make curry but make special fries. And I google and find many options to new recipes. As my blog is still in the shifting stage I am lucky I have many more recipes to upload and conquer the variety of tastes. 

I marinated the chicken and it took me very less time to cook till done. I prepared two marinations and let the chicken sit in for ate lats four hours if your in a hurry to cook them otherwise I would recommend at least 12 hours .
