Spicy Chicken Gravy

Spicy Chicken Gravy is one of the recipes that adds on to the list of my own dishes. I tried it out and served for the guests who had come to my house.

I served it as a side dish for the Chicken Biriyani that was prepared by my Aunt, one of our family friends. I didn't find time to post this, as I was caught up with my busy work schedule.
