Crispy Bang Bang (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
2 cups of frying oil, like vegetable or canola.
02 -
1 pound chicken breast, boneless and skinless.
03 -
1 large egg, beaten.
04 -
⅓ cup full-fat milk.
05 -
¼ cup plain flour.
06 -
⅓ cup mayo.
07 -
¼ cup cornstarch or potato starch.
08 -
1 teaspoon fine salt.
09 -
½ teaspoon ground black pepper.
10 -
3 tablespoons chili sauce that's sweet.
11 -
2 tablespoons runny honey.
12 -
1 tablespoon sesame seeds for garnish.
13 -
1 tablespoon sriracha (more or less to taste).
14 -
½ teaspoon of extra salt for seasoning.
# Instructions:
01 -
In a medium bowl, mix mayo, chili sauce, sriracha, honey, sesame seeds, and some salt until smooth. Leave it aside for later.
02 -
Slice the chicken into small 1-inch bites. Break an egg into a medium dish and mix it with milk. Use another bowl to combine flour, cornstarch, pepper, and salt.
03 -
Dip the chicken chunks into the wet egg mixture. Toss them in a big zip bag filled with the dry flour mixture. Shake until they're well coated.
04 -
Warm up the oil at medium-high heat. Fry the chicken in small amounts for about 3–4 minutes per batch. Turn them while cooking so they brown on all sides.
05 -
Let the fried chicken drain on paper towels. Move it into a bowl with the sauce, and stir until everything's coated. Eat right away!
# Notes:
01 -
Tastes best when eaten hot off the stove.
02 -
You might need to fry the chicken in several rounds.
03 -
Adjust the heat in the sauce if you'd like it spicier or milder.
