Pan Fried Chicken Manchurian

I love Chicken manchurian as a starter and it used to be the must order items when I go to Chinese restaurants. But once I started to diet, I had to skip it as it was deep fried. So I started making it at home with the healthier version by Pan frying the chicken. Chicken Manchurian is good combo for fried rice or noodles or good enough as a starter.
