[i]Asalaam Alaikum Sister-

Now depending on how much chicken you are frying i have an easy peasy  recipe-
And if i can cook it anyone can-before i married i couldnt even peel and onion  :wink:

ok  :arrow: fried chicken
[i]Coat chicken in some marinade-
you can buy ready marinade from shops/
make your own-
I prefer making my own using-

:arrow: juice of 1 lemon-
:arrow: pinch of salt & pepper,
:arrow: tsp chilli powder-
:arrow: tsp cumin powder,
:arrow: and some tomatoe puree-

:arrow: [i]mix marinade in with pieces of chicken-
its best to leave it to soak in the marinade for about 1 hour or pref overnight-

[b]COOKING
Put 2 tblsp cooking oil in a frying pan-
wait till it warms up-
add chicken pieces-
make sure heat is low-cover and it will be ready in 15 mins depends on thickness of the chicken-lil pieces wont take long at all-
make sure you turn the pieces halfway through cooking though-


[i] :idea:  Sister you can serve this with rice-or even pasta and salad-
