Instructions

1

Prep the chicken

Slice the chicken breasts into even strips and season them all over.

10 min
Keep the strips similar in size so they cook evenly.
2

3 min
Taste and add a little more chili crunch if you want extra heat.
3

Set up the coating station

Beat the eggs in one bowl and combine the flour, cornstarch, and seasonings in another bowl.

The cornstarch helps create a lighter, crispier crust.
4

Coat the chicken

Dip each strip into the egg, then dredge it in the flour mixture until well coated.

7 min
Press the coating on gently so it adheres well.
5

Fry until golden

Heat the oil in a pan and fry the chicken strips in batches until crisp and cooked through.
