• Half of a green chili, sliced and chopped
• Oil (for frying and sautéing)
• Tomato paste (1-2 teaspoons)

• Plain flour

Sandwich Assembly:

Instructions:
1. Prepare Spice Mix: Combine all the ingredients listed under "Indian-Inspired Spice Mix" in a bowl and whisk to combine.
2. Marinate Chicken: In a separate bowl, mix half of the spice mix with yogurt, grated ginger, crushed garlic, salt, and lemon juice. Add chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring they are thoroughly coated. Marinate for at least an hour or preferably overnight.
3. Prepare Sauce: In a pan, sauté grated ginger, grated garlic, black pepper, and green chili in oil. Add tomato paste and remaining spice mix. Cook briefly, then remove from heat and allow to cool. Combine with yogurt, salt, and sugar to taste.
4. Coat Chicken: Prepare a coating mixture by combining flour, salt, baking powder, and remaining spice mix. Dredge marinated chicken in the flour mixture until evenly coated.
5. Fry Chicken: Heat oil in a frying vessel to 190°C (375°F). Fry coated chicken pieces until golden brown and cooked through (6-10 minutes). Drain excess oil on paper towels.
6. Prepare Spiced Oil: Mix remaining spice mix with hot oil from frying to create a flavorful oil.
7. Assemble Sandwich: Place red onion slices on the bottom bun, followed by pickle chips. Spread Chicken 65 sauce generously on the top bun. Place fried chicken pieces on the bottom bun, and brush with spiced oil. Top with the top bun and serve hot.
