Ingredients

• 300 grams boneless chicken breast
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
• 2 green chilies, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 1 teaspoon garam masala
• 0.5 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 100 grams frozen peas
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
• 12 sheets ready-made samosa pastry sheets
• 500 milliliters oil for frying

Directions

Step 1

Cut the chicken breast into small, bite-sized cubes and set aside.

Step 2

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 3

Add the chopped onions and sauté until they become translucent, about 5-6 minutes.

Step 4

Stir in the minced garlic, grated ginger, and chopped green chilies. Cook for an additional 2 minutes.

Step 5

Add the chicken pieces to the skillet and cook until they are no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 6

Mix in the ground cumin, ground coriander, garam masala, turmeric powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to coat the chicken evenly with spices.

Step 7

Add the frozen peas and cook for another 2 minutes.

Step 8

Once the chicken is cooked through, stir in the lemon juice and chopped cilantro. Remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly.

Step 9

Prepare the samosa pastry sheets as per package instructions.

Step 10

Take one sheet and fold it into a cone shape. Fill the cone with the chicken mixture and seal the edge with a little water to close the samosa.

Step 11

Repeat with the remaining sheets and filling.

Step 12

Heat 500 milliliters of oil in a deep pan over medium-high heat.

Step 13

Fry the samosas in batches until they are golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Step 14

Remove from oil and place on paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Step 15

Serve hot with your favorite chutney or dipping sauce.
