Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1.5 pounds chicken breast skinless, boneless, and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 3/4 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Vegetable or sunflower oil
Sauce
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce
- 1 teaspoon sriracha sauce (or hot sauce of choice – I used Chinese chili sauce and Tabasco)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, add the diced chicken and buttermilk.
- In a separate medium bowl, add the Panko, all-purpose flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and salt. (I added 1/2 tsp chicken spice as well)
- Drain chicken, place each chicken piece in the breading mixture, and toss to coat.
- Heat sunflower oil, vegetable oil, or any neutral flavor oil in a non-stick or cast iron skillet to deep fry.
- Add the breaded chicken and cook for approximately 2 minutes on each side until crispy.
- Place the cooked chicken on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb the excess oil.
- Serve the chicken with rice and the bang bang sauce drizzled over top.
- Garnish with sliced spring onions.
- Mix sauce well and add the sauce right before eating so the chicken stays crispy.
