“KANCHA LONKA MURGI” ….  Bengali style green chilli chicken. Learned this recipe from one of sweet sister Tanushree, who herself is a food blogger. It is really an awesome recipe, totally bong style like mom’s recipe. At my early age I’ve followed that my mom generally used green chillies all most all  her every dishes instead of red chillies. I love the real fragnance of green chillies. In this recipe I’ve used huge amount of green chillies (of course De-seeded). It gives a strong aroma & spicy taste. Very easy recipe, simple ingredients & all of my family members liked it very much. Have this dish only with hot plain rice or plain chapati as per your choice.
