  1. Heat oil in a pan or deep fryer. Fry the marinated chicken in batches until golden and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Prepare the Sauce

  1. In another pan, heat oil. Add sliced onions, bell peppers, and green chilies. Sauté until the vegetables are slightly tender.

  2. Add ginger-garlic paste and stir for a minute. Then add soy sauce, chili sauce, tomato ketchup, vinegar, and sugar. Mix well.

Combine

  1. Add the fried chicken to the sauce and toss to coat evenly. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Serve
