Restaurant Style Chicken Chaap
Advertisement
Chicken Chaap is a nawabi cuisine liked and adopted by people of kolkata since the time of nawabs. in Kolkata there are array of muhglai restaurants, they provides chicken chaap on their own style. Hence the old resturant Royal's Chicken chaap is my favourite. Biriyani lovers of kolkata , (includes me) never consider mutton biriyani without Chicken chaap, though it can be eat with pulao preparations or rumali rotis/naan. Chicken chaap is rich,spicy and flavorful dish. Usually quarter leg of chicken was marinated with spices for hours or overnight then slow cooked in butter or ghee. It is a delightful dish for all non veg lovers and definitely for people of Kolkata.
