  • 2-3 tablespoons oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic paste
  • 2-3 tablespoons yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon chili flakes
  • Salt to taste
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 medium tomato, chopped
  • 1 medium bell pepper, chopped
  • 2-3.5 ounces cheese, grated
  • Coal for smoke

For the Dough:

  • 6 ¼ cups flour
  • Lukewarm water as required
  • 1 tablespoon (0.4 ounces) yeast
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • 2-3 tablespoons ghee/butter

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Dough

  1. Activate the Yeast: In half a cup of lukewarm water, add the sugar, salt, and yeast. Mix well and let it sit for 15 minutes until frothy.
  2. Mix the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, milk, and egg. Add the yeast mixture and mix well. Gradually add lukewarm water while kneading until the dough becomes soft and elastic.
  3. Let it Rise: Cover the dough with a cloth and let it rise for 1 to 1.5 hours until it doubles in size.

Step 2: Prepare the Chicken Filling

  1. Cook the Chicken: Heat oil in a pan and add the garlic paste and boneless chicken. Fry until the chicken is cooked.
  2. Add Spices and Veggies: Add the yogurt, black pepper, chili flakes, salt, and lemon juice. Mix well. Add half a cup of water and cook on low heat for 5 minutes. Add the chopped onion, bell pepper, and tomato, then mix well.
  3. Infuse Smoke Flavor: Turn off the heat, place a piece of foil in the center of the pan, add a piece of hot coal on the foil, and cover the pan for 2 minutes to infuse the smoke flavor. Remove the coal and set the filling aside.

Step 3: Shape and Fill the Bread

  1. Roll the Dough: Take a portion of the risen dough and roll it out into a rectangular shape on a floured surface.
  2. Cut Strips: Cut the dough into strips along the edges, leaving the center intact.
  3. Add Filling: Place the chicken filling in the center of the dough. Add grated cheese on top of the filling.
  4. Braid the Bread: Fold the strips over the filling in a crisscross pattern to create a braid.

Step 4: Cook the Bread (Without Oven)

  1. Prepare the Pan: Heat a large, heavy-bottomed pan on medium heat. Grease it with a little oil or butter.
  2. Bake the Bread: Place the braided bread in the pan, cover, and cook on low heat for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and cooked through.

Step 5: Serve

  1. Add Toppings: Brush the cooked bread with beaten egg and sprinkle with black sesame seeds. Add slices of tomato and bell pepper for garnish.
  2. Enjoy: Serve hot and enjoy your homemade Chicken Cheese Bread!
