Chili Chicken Ingredients

Preparation

Cooking Directions

1. Prepare the Chicken

Cut the boneless chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with salt, garlic powder, and black pepper.

2. Make the Tempura Batter

In a mixing bowl, combine cornstarch, rice flour, and ice water. Whisk until smooth to create a tempura batter.

3. Heat the Oil

In a deep frying pan or wok, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot.

4. Fry the Chicken

Dip each piece of chicken into the tempura batter, then carefully place them in the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

5. Prepare the Cucumbers

Slice the cucumbers thinly and set aside.

6. Serve

Arrange the fried chicken on a serving plate, drizzle with chili sauce, and garnish with sliced cucumbers and chopped green onions.
