Chicken Choila
Chicken Choila is a traditional Nepali grilled chicken dish, famous for its smoky, spicy, and tangy flavors. Tender chicken pieces are marinated with a blend of mustard oil, garlic, ginger, green chilies, turmeric, cumin, and a special Nepali spice called timur (Sichuan pepper), then grilled or pan-seared until slightly charred and juicy. It is often mixed with fresh chopped onions, coriander, and a squeeze of lemon juice for an extra zing. Served as an appetizer or side dish, Chicken Choila is a flavorful and aromatic delicacy, commonly enjoyed with beaten rice (chiura) or other Nepali meals.
