# Needed Ingredients:
01 -
1 large egg.
02 -
⅓ cup whole milk.
03 -
¼ cup all-purpose flour.
04 -
¼ cup cornstarch.
05 -
1 pound chicken breast, boneless and skinless.
06 -
½ teaspoon black pepper.
07 -
1 teaspoon salt.
08 -
2 cups vegetable oil for frying.
09 -
3 tablespoons chili sauce, sweet.
10 -
2 tablespoons honey.
11 -
⅓ cup mayonnaise.
12 -
1 tablespoon sriracha.
13 -
1 tablespoon sesame seeds.
14 -
½ teaspoon salt.
# Preparation Steps:
01 -
Mix mayonnaise, chili sauce, honey, sriracha, some salt, and sesame seeds in a bowl. Set it aside for later on.
02 -
Slice the chicken into bite-sized cubes (about an inch thick). In one bowl, whisk together milk and egg. In another, combine cornstarch, flour, salt, and black pepper.
03 -
Dip the chicken pieces into the milk mix, making sure they’re covered. Toss them into a plastic bag with the flour mixture and shake until they’ve got a nice coating.
04 -
Warm oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the chicken in small batches, about 3-4 minutes each, turning so they cook evenly and are golden brown.
05 -
Let the chicken drain on paper towels. Then toss it all in a bowl with the sauce, giving everything a good stir so it’s well coated. Serve while it’s still hot!
# Supplementary Details:
01 -
Tastes best when eaten warm and immediately after cooking.
02 -
To prevent oil overcrowding, fry in smaller portions.
03 -
Feel free to tweak the spice level of the sauce.
