Steps

1. To begin making the Chicken Tikki Recipe, In a small bowl, whisk the egg and keep aside.
2. Take minced chicken in a big bowl. Add in all the spices mentioned including garam masala powder, red chilli powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, cumin powder and mix well.
3. Now add in ginger garlic paste, chopped onions, chopped coriander leaves, rice flour, 1/4 cup bread crumbs and salt to taste. Mix well.
4. If you find the mixture is too sticky to make balls, add in more bread crumbs. Take about lemon size ball out of mixture and shape it into round shape.
5. Dip each ball into the egg mixture and dust them in the breadcrumbs, pressing a little while dusting to give it a flat cutlet or patty shape.
6. Heat a skillet and add a tablespoon oil. Arrange all the patties on top and drizzle more oil on top of each patty.
7. Fry on medium heat till crisp on both the sides. This takes roughly 5 minutes on each side. Remove on a plate and serve hot.
