Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare Chicken

    Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and season with salt.

  2. 2

    Make Tempura Batter

    In a bowl, mix the tempura batter mix with ice water until just combined. Do not overmix.

  3. 3

    Heat Oil

    In a deep pot or frying pan, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

  4. 4

    Fry Chicken

    Dip the chicken pieces in the tempura batter and carefully place them in the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes.
