step by step

Method

  1. Coat the chicken

    • In a large bowl, mix the chicken pieces with the salt, white pepper, chicken bouillon powder and garlic powder.
    • Add the eggs, flour and cornstarch directly into the bowl.
    • Stir until the chicken is fully coated in the thick batter.
    Step 1

  2. First fry

    • Heat the oil in a deep pan or fryer to 175 °C.
    • Fry the chicken in batches so the pan is not overcrowded.
    • Transfer to a paper towel-lined tray to drain the excess oil.
    Step 2

  3. Double fry for extra crunch

    • Fry the chicken a second time until golden brown and ultra crispy.
    • Drain again on paper towels.
    Step 3

  4. Make the honey butter sauce

    • Melt the butter in a pan over medium heat.
    • Sauté the garlic until fragrant.
    • Add the honey, soy sauce and brown sugar and stir until the sugar dissolves and the sauce thickens.
    Step 4

  5. Coat the chicken

    • Add the fried chicken to the pan and toss until fully coated.
    • Drizzle with the sesame oil for extra aroma.
    Step 5

  6. Garnish and serve
