Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Chicken
Cut the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
Make the Batter
In a bowl, mix the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Combine Dry and Wet Ingredients
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until a smooth batter forms.
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Fry the Chicken
Dip the chicken pieces into the batter, allowing any excess to drip off, then carefully place them in the hot oil. Fry in batches until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
Drain and Serve
Remove the chicken fritti from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
