When I was clicking these pictures, I was just doing it by habit and not really realizing that I am yet to share this oft prepared Chicken 65 dish at home. I was checking my list and so confused about how I haven't done a post on the famous Chicken 65. Maybe I have, my search results didn't get me a list, rather the two versions of Paneer 65 came up on my list. I am simply trusting my search script to have done its job well and going ahead with this recipe.
This Restaurant Style of Chicken 65 is the one we have been preparing more often recently, more for the ease and the exact taste of the hotel preparation. My kids vouch it tastes exactly the same. Since both the cooks are vegetarian (Amma and myself) we have to take their word and their repeated request for this dish, to know that it comes out great!
The origin for the Chicken 65 is mostly vague, some say it was the year this dish was concocted and something else. Whatever it is, we have observed that in all the places we have seen it, its mostly deep fried preparation. Hence we assume by adaptation, this should be it!
Now those of you, who cook chicken, please go straight to make this and Enjoy!

Chicken 65 is such a popular dish, but I never even thought on how it got its name 🙂
Don't worry about the vegetarians in CCC group, I'm sure you have a lot more readers who would love to try your non-veg recipes. So keep those coming too.
