Chettinad is a region of Tamil Nadu in southern India, where spices like cardamom, cinnamon, and black pepper take centre stage. Our sauce, whilst centred around those spices, is made delicious and harmonious with local aromats, tomato and coconut. It is a wonderful combination of flavours, and one that works perfectly with chicken. For the most authentic and delicious dish, we have chosen to slow cook the chicken (bone-in) in the sauce for added depth of flavour. Finish with a good amount of freshly ground black pepper, and chopped coriander. For an extra pop of crunch and flavour, spoon over some lightly fried curry leaves, mustard seeds and coconut flakes.
