Thai Fried Chicken, or "Gai Tod," is a flavorful dish hailing from Thailand, known for its crispy texture and aromatic seasoning. This dish is traditionally made by marinating chicken in a mixture of garlic, coriander root, white pepper, soy sauce, and fish sauce before coating it in rice flour or a seasoned batter and deep-frying to golden perfection. The result is a crispy, savory exterior with juicy, tender meat inside. As a street food favorite in Thai cuisine, it offers bold flavors but can be high in calories and fat due to the frying process. However, the use of herbs and spices like garlic and coriander provides antioxidants and anti-inflammatory benefits. Adjusting cooking methods, such as air frying, or pairing it with fresh vegetables can make it a more balanced option. Thai Fried Chicken combines indulgence with the rich culinary tradition of Southeast Asia.
