PEPPER-GARLIC CHICKEN

                                       PEPPER-GARLIC CHICKEN

The spice Pepper is referred to as "King of Spices". We all have seen pepper in different colors like green, black depending on its maturity. Pepper and garlic also have disease preventing and health promoting features .Its been found that pepper is in use since long time for its anti-inflammatory, carminative, anti-flatulent properties and Garlic exerts its benefits on multiple levels, offering anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-fungal,and antioxidant properties. So the use of both together makes a healthy combination..So in this recipe I did not add any red chillies only grounded pepper n garlic are used here....
