Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Chicken breasts
- 1 cup Cornstarch
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 cups Vegetable oil
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 0.25 cup Sweet chili sauce
- 2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 2 tablespoons Green onions (sliced)
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions
Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
In a medium bowl, mix the flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until well beaten.
Coat each chicken piece in the flour mixture, then dip into the eggs, and coat again in the flour mixture. Place on a plate and repeat with all pieces.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or deep pan over medium heat. Once the oil reaches 350°F (175°C), carefully fry the chicken in batches until golden brown and fully cooked, about 4-5 minutes per batch. Place the fried chicken on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, Sriracha, and honey until smooth. This is the Bang Bang sauce.
Transfer the fried chicken to a large bowl and drizzle the Bang Bang sauce over it. Toss gently to coat all the chicken pieces.
Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
Serve immediately as an appetizer or with rice and vegetables for a main course. Enjoy!
