Chicken Chettinad is a fiery, aromatic curry from the Chettinad region of Tamil Nadu, known for its bold use of freshly ground spices. This dish features a complex spice paste made from black pepper, fennel, star anise, and kalpasi that gives it an incredibly deep, layered flavour you will not find in any other curry. It is the kind of dish that spice lovers dream about.
