CHICKEN TAWA FRY

Pan frying is a form of frying by using of minimal cooking oil or fat, compared to deep frying. In this chicken fry recipe, I am just using little butter to lubricate the pan, no more oil or other fats may be needed. As a form of frying, pan frying relies on oil as the heat transfer medium on correct temperature and time to retain the moisture in the chicken. Because of the partial coverage, the chicken must be flipped at least twice or thrice to cook all sides evenly
