Chicken Coconut Roast

      Chicken dishes are all time favorites.This is one of the authentic dish of north malabar.It tastes too good when had with the same authentic neypathiri.This also goes well with plain pathiri.
      I have always wanted to have varieties in chicken recipes,because chicken's chemistry with any type of masala and any type of innovation is simply superb.
