Chicken Capsicum Curry Recipe

Chicken capsicum curry is simple and delicious curry recipe prepared with chicken and capsicum and cooked in a spicy onion and tomato based curry. This Indian curry is not a very high calorie diet as coconut or coconut milk is not used in this curry preparation. The aroma and flavour of capsicum/bell pepper along with chicken is mouth watering. This chicken curry suits well with tawa roti, phulka and white rice. I tried with idly(Indian rice cake) which was awesome.
