A delightful blend of red chilli pepper, baby corn and chicken

RED CHILLI PEPPER CHICKEN WITH BABY CORN

Hello all!

Today's recipe from my diary is an Asian flavor inspired beautiful combination of chicken breast , red chilli pepper and baby corn. Chicken goes very well with chilli peppers of all varieties from mild to hottest. In this recipe I have used the large red chilli pepper which is mildly spicy and is more towards the sweet side with less heat. In case of chilli peppers it is always like larger the size, milder is the chilli and smaller the size more hot it is. Apart from the chilli there is baby corn another great pairing for boneless chicken. So go ahead and surprise your family with this delicious recipe. Also a great idea for those who are planning to cook a romantic dinner for their partner today.

Here goes the recipe...
