Chicken 65 Recipe

Last updated: October 27th, 2022

While I used to live in South India, to be specific Bangalore, I was first introduced to Chicken 65. There was a shop in BTM layout where almost every Friday I used to snack on chicken 65 or paneer 65. As history suggests, chicken 65 actually was first made in Tamil Nadu. From there the flavour has spread to almost every corner of India now. Today I am sharing my chicken 65 gravy version with you all. Since I cook for my family, I avoid using artificial food colours and other ingredients with preservatives. So I made this without using any of such things and with this recipe I managed to get somewhat the same color and taste as the chicken 65 I had in South India.
