When one gets a wee bit bored with eating and cooking regular meat curry and the quintessential favourites of the household; one tends to make certain trails and experimentations in their kitchen. The cumin flavoured chicken is the result of one such experimentation of a friend who then kindly shared. I have found people appreciating it (fortunately!)
