Ingredients:

  • Chicken Breast(Boneless)- 1 piece(180 gram)
  • Sliced onion- 1 medium whole

  • Sliced cucumber- 1 cup
  • Chopped lettuce- 1 cup

    • Salt to taste
    • Garlic powder- 1 teaspoon
    • Ginger powder- 1/2 teaspoon
    • Crushed Black pepper- 1/2 teaspoon
    • Paprika powder- 1/2 teaspoon
    • Chilli flakes- 1/2 teaspoon
    • Dried Oregano- 1/2 teaspoon
    • Roasted Cumin Powder- 1/2 teaspoon
  • For salad dressing,
    • Hung curd- 2 tablespoon
    • Extra virgin olive oil- 2 tablespoon
    • Dijon Mustard sauce- 1 tablespoon
    • Salt to taste
    • Lemon juice- 1.5 tablespoon
    • Chilli flakes- 1/4 teaspoon
    • Crushed Black pepper as per taste
    • Finely Chopped Jalapeno-  1/2 of a whole
    • Finely Chopped Garlic- 1 large cloves
    • Chopped Coriander leaves- 2 tablespoon

How to Make:

  1. Take the washed chicken breast. Make it completely dry with paper towel.
  2. Prick it well with a fork from both side. 
  3. Now take the chicken in a bowl and add all ingredient for marinade.
  4. Marinate well and keep it in freeze for 2 hours.
  5. Then, take all ingredients for salad dressing in a mixing bowl. Whisk well to make it even. Keep aside.
  6. Heat a grill pan. Add oil and spread it with brush.
  7. Place chicken to fry. Wait for 6 minutes in medium to low heat. 
  8. Flip to fry from other side and do in same way.
  9. Take out from pan once done and slice it.
  10. Now add all veggies into dressing and coat them well.
  11. Transfer into a serving bowl. Place the chicken slices on it and its ready to serve. 

My Tip: 

  • Always before marination, meat should be dry completely (no water in it). It will help to stick marinade in chicken properly.
  • Pricking is very important to enter the marinade inside the chicken to make it more flavourful. 
  • You can take chicken thigh filet as well. Breast filet is more healthy as it contains less fat more fiber.
  • Veggies can be added as per your choice. You can add carrots, avocado, any other variety of tomato/lettuce etc.
  • Spice quantity can be adjusted as per your taste.

Christmas Cake (Part-1): Dry Fruits Soaking in Rum

Image
Its the time to soak dry fruit in alcohol(dark Rum/ whisky/ Brandy/ red wine). Traditionally, dry fruit should be soaked 3 months before the Christmas. But at least 1 month soak is very necessary to make dry fruit juicy. In classic Christmas cake, juicy dry fruits are the main ingredients. Here you can use any dry fruits whatever you get. Other ingredients like flour is just used to bind dry fruits and nuts. My Christmas celebration can't be complete without traditional Christmas cake. We will bake the cake in next month at least a week before from Christmas. After baking, the last step is feeding the cake.

Brush the cake with alcohol twice in a week after baking. Here I am using Rum to soak the fruit and will do the feeding after baking the cake with Rum. If you don't want to use alcohol, instead of this you can use ora...
