Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces.
In a medium bowl, beat the two eggs. Place the cornstarch and breadcrumbs in separate shallow dishes.
Season the chicken pieces with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Coat each chicken piece in cornstarch, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with breadcrumbs. Make sure each piece is evenly covered.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, carefully place the chicken pieces in the skillet. Fry the chicken in batches, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes per batch. Remove the chicken and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Sriracha sauce, lime juice, and honey to make the Bang Bang sauce.
Drizzle the sauce generously over the fried chicken pieces. Alternatively, you can toss the chicken pieces in the sauce for an even coat.
Garnish with chopped chives and serve immediately.
