Ingredients

• 2 pieces Chicken breasts
• 1 cup Cornstarch
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 2 cups Vegetable oil
• 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
• 0.25 cup Sweet chili sauce
• 2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 2 tablespoons Green onions (sliced)
• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and set aside.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, mix the flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until well beaten.

Step 4

Coat each chicken piece in the flour mixture, then dip into the eggs, and coat again in the flour mixture. Place on a plate and repeat with all pieces.

Step 5

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or deep pan over medium heat. Once the oil reaches 350°F (175°C), carefully fry the chicken in batches until golden brown and fully cooked, about 4-5 minutes per batch. Place the fried chicken on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Step 6

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, Sriracha, and honey until smooth. This is the Bang Bang sauce.

Step 7

Transfer the fried chicken to a large bowl and drizzle the Bang Bang sauce over it. Toss gently to coat all the chicken pieces.

Step 8

Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.

Step 9

Serve immediately as an appetizer or with rice and vegetables for a main course. Enjoy!
