Pasta is one of the most basic foods from Italian cuisine and is a staple usually served for lunch or dinner.

Hi Karishma
Not sure about vermicelli if it is going to stick to the chicken well.
But for marination you can use garam masala, red chilipowder, ginger garlic paste, 1 tbsp oil, turmeric, salt.
