Chinese Salt and Pepper Chicken and Chips is a popular dish blending East Asian flavors with a Western staple. Originating from Chinese cuisine, the chicken is typically marinated, battered, and fried, then seasoned with a mix of salt, cracked black pepper, garlic, chili flakes, and spring onions, delivering a bold and spicy taste. Paired with crispy chips, this takeaway favorite embodies fusion comfort food. Nutritionally, the dish is high in protein from the chicken, but also comes with a high calorie count due to frying and added oil. The chips contribute carbs and additional sodium. While the spice mix and vegetables like garlic and spring onions offer antioxidants and some vitamins, the dish’s overall fat and salt content can pose challenges for heart health when consumed excessively. For a lighter option, baking or air frying can reduce fat while preserving its signature crunch and flavor.
