- 1 large Egg
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon Gluten-free soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 2 stalks Green onion, finely chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 500 milliliters Vegetable oil (for frying)
- 2 tablespoons Gluten-free hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 0.5 teaspoon Chili flakes

Directions
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine ground chicken, gluten-free breadcrumbs, egg, minced garlic, grated ginger, gluten-free soy sauce, sesame oil, chopped green onion, salt, and black pepper.
Step 2
Mix the ingredients thoroughly until evenly combined and sticky. Set aside.
Step 3
Using damp hands, shape the chicken mixture into small balls, about 1.5 inches in diameter. Place the formed balls onto a plate or tray.
Step 4
In a deep frying pan or pot, heat vegetable oil to 180°C (350°F). Use a thermometer to maintain the correct temperature.
Step 5
Carefully fry the chicken balls in small batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 4-5 minutes per batch, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 6
Remove the chicken balls from the oil using a slotted spoon and drain them on a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat for all the batches.
Step 7
To make the oriental dipping sauce, whisk together gluten-free hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, honey, chili flakes, and water in a small bowl until smooth.
Step 8
Serve the warm chicken balls with the dipping sauce on the side. Garnish with additional chopped green onion if desired.
