Chicken Capsicum Stir fry without any sauces-- My Recipe

These days I have started eating healthy and try to avoid both Rice and Roti.. and so I started trying different recipes so I don't get bored with my diet... Chicken Capsicum Stir fry is a healthier option, as it is protein and also capsicum is very good for our health as it helps in keeping the skin clear, prevents rashes and pimples. It contains vitamin A, which is good for eyes and helps prevent eye diseases. In this recipe I used mostly boneless chicken pieces for easy cooking.


Ingredients: Cooking time: 25 minutes Serves: 2

 Olive Oil- 3 tbsp
Chicken- 250gms bite size pieces ( mostly breast pieces)
Onion-1(sliced)
Ginger Garlic paste- 1tbsp
Capsicum- 1/4 cup (sliced length wise)
Red  pepper-1/4 cup (sliced length wise)
Yellow pepper-1/4 cup (sliced length wise)
white sesame seeds- 1 tsp
Sakti chicken Masala powder-1 tsp (optional)Garam masala powder- 1/2 tsp
Honey -2 tbsp (optional)
Pepper powder-- 1 tsp.

Marination:
Red chilli powder-1/2 tsp
Turmeric powder-1/4 tsp
Ginger garlic paste-1 tsp

Method:

1. Marinate the chicken well with ingredients given under marination. Set aside for 15 minutes.
2. Add oil to the wok and once the oil is heated add the sliced onions.

3. Once the onions are cooked and changes color, add the ginger garlic paste. Note: Do not brown the onions.


4. when the raw smell of ginger garlic paste disappears add the marinated chicken and fry for few minutes

5. Since these are breast pieces, these will get cooked very easily. You will know that the chicken is almost done, when it starts changing to white. At this stage add the garam masala powder and fry for 1 minute.


6. Add the capsicum and the bell peppers at this stage and fry for 2 minutes.


7. Add Sesame seeds, pepper powder and honey and fry for 3 minutes

8. Finally add the Sakthi chicken masala powder and fry for 2 minutes.

9. Serve hot!!

Note: 
1. Adding honey is optional, I like it a bit sweet and so I added it.  
2. You can also add sugar instead of honey.
3. Sakti chicken masala in the end is also optional. Pic shown below
