Ingredients for chicken filling
Chicken boiled and shredded 1 ½ to 2 cups
Onion chopped finely 1 medium or 2 small
Salt 1 tsp
Black pepper 1 tsp
Coriander leaves 2 tbsp
Green chilies chopped 4
Garam Masala Powder 1 tsp
Flour 2 tbsp
Butter 2 tbsp
Milk 1 cup
Sesame seeds as required
Heat 2 tbsp butter fry onion till soft then add 2 tbsp flour with 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp black pepper, 1 tsp garam masala….add the milk, cook till thick, mix in the shredded chicken add chopped green chilies and coriander leaves, remove and cool completely. Now divide the dough into two or three parts depending on what size loaves of chicken bread you want. Roll the dough to a rectangular shape, snip the sides with scissors or a knife, put filling in the centre and fold each side so they overlap each other (like a braid) the filling will show slightly but that’s ok, brush top with beaten egg, sprinkle sesame seeds and bake on 200 degree C for 25 minutes or so.
Right after taking out of the oven apply butter well on whole bread and let it rest covered with a cloth for 2-3 min to soften the bread completely.Chicken Bread: Step 1
Roll out the dough into a rectangle.
PS: Although the recipe doesn’t call for it, I normally dab a touch of butter to this to make it ultra yummy.
Put your filling in the center of the rectangle and make slits on both of the longer sides.
Start bringing the topmost slit ends across from each other alternately.
