Slow cooked chicken with Peppercorn Sauce & Vegetables Stir Fry

This is a recipe that I came up with when I was feeling too lazy to cook anything. It's really very simple & easy, almost no spices at all & fun to make :) :)



There are 3 elements to this recipe. First the Chicken, then stir fry vegetables & then the sauce.

For the chicken marinade you need :
  • Chicken boneless fillets (or u can take with the bones)
  • Grated garlic 1tsp
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper half tsp
  • Mustard paste 1tsp
  • Tomato sauce, 1 tbsp
  • juice of 1 lemon
  • oil or butter 2tbsp
Mix all the above ingredients together & marinate the chicken for about an hour.
Then, fry the chicken on a grill pan. First on high heat for 5mins, then on low heat till chicken is cooked properly on both the sides.

For the Peppercorn Sauce you need :
  • Oil 2tbsp
  • All purpose flour 1tbsp
  • Black pepper 1tsp
  • Cream 2tbsp
  • Water half cup
  • salt to taste
  • Burnt Sugar syrup 2tbsp (cook 1tsp sugar in a pan over flame & when it starts to caramelize, pour  in half cup water & cook till sugar dissolves completely)
Heat oil, add flour & cook for 2minutes on a low flame.
Add salt + black pepper.
Add water & mix imm. till everything combines well.
Add cream. Mix properly.
Add the sugar syrup & cook till it thickens. And ur sauce is ready. 
Pour a really generous amount of sauce over the chicken while serving.
(This sauce is realy  tasty & can be used for other recipes as well)

For the stir fry vegetables you need :
  • 2 cups of mixed veggies (carrots, french beans, peas, babycorns or any other vegetables that you & your family likes)
  • salt
  • pepper
  • crushed garlic
  • butter for seasoning
  • oil 
Take oil in a pan & fry all the vegetables roughly for 2minutes.
Add garlic + salt + pepper.
Please do not overcook the vegetables as they wont taste good. Let them be crisp.

Now, ur dish is ready to serve :)

Happy Eating :)
