About this dish

Chicken 65 is a spicy, deep-fried chicken dish originating from Hotel Buhari, Chennai, India, as an entrée, or quick snack. The flavour of the dish can be attributed to red chillies, but the exact set of ingredients for the recipe can vary. Although it is now commonly prepared with boneless chicken, it was originally prepared with bone-in chicken. Chicken 65 is usually served with an onion and lemon garnish. Vegetarian variants such as "Paneer 65" or "Gobhi 65" use paneer or cauliflower instead. While the name "Chicken 65" is universally used to refer to the dish, there are many different theories claiming its origins.
