This Indian pepper chicken is a staple in my house. And, it’s even easy enough to pull together on a weeknight. Bonus! If you enjoy Indian food, you will love this dish. It also makes the house smell lovely — all warm and spicy and exotic. Try it. You’ll like it.

The dish is fabulous to eat, but it certainly doesn’t photograph well, hence the absence of a picture. It looks appetizing in person, but translates into brown goop when photographed. Sort of like the eggplant pickle I made below. Which, however murky and weird it looks in the photo, was outstanding. It was so good, in fact, that I am planning additional Indian food for next week’s menu so we can enjoy the pickle again. Recipe to come.
