Method to cook Chicken Sizzler
Preparing the Chicken breast marinade:
Wash and pat dry the chicken breast pieces with a paper towel
Use a meat tenderiser or rolling pin to pound the chicken breast pieces lightly to flatten them out
In a bowl prepare the chicken marinade by adding the Turmeric, Ginger-Garlic paste, Salt , Chilli Powder, Soy Sauce, Worcestershire sauce and chilli sauce and give the ingredients a good mix
Now add the flattened breast pieces into the prepared marinade so that they get uniformly coated
For best results leave the marinated breast pieces for about 7-8 hours or overnight in the fridge for the flavours to be well absorbed
Cooking the vegetables :
Par boil the chopped vegetables (except for the potato wedges ) with a pinch of salt in the boiling water to soften them slightly
After the vegetables are boiled sauté them lightly in a pan drizzle with some Virgin olive oil. Then fry the potato wedges
Using another shallow pan , pan fry the marinated chicken breast pieces till they are well cooked , turning them over when they get to a golden brown on one side using kitchen tongs
When all the chicken pieces are fried keep the chicken pieces aside and switch off the flame
Plating the Sizzler Plates:
Leave the cast iron plate to heat on low to medium flame for 15-20 minutes until fumes start to emerge
At this point lower the heat and spread the cabbage leaves over the cast iron plate
Place the fried chicken pieces in the centre and surround it with the sautéed vegetables and potato wedges
Leave the plate on low flame for 2-3 minutes. To get the chicken to sizzle take a capful of white vinegar and pour it around the outer edges of the cast iron plate
Transfer the cast iron plate onto the wooden tray and serve the sizzler with the prepared sauce
