Ingredients
1. 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thigh and/or breast
2. 1/2 cup milk (optional)
3. 1/4 teaspoon salt
4. pinch pepper
5. 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
6. 1/2 teaspoon minced ginger
7. 1 tablespoon rice wine (if not using milk)
8. 1/3 cup potato starch (or corn starch)
9. oil for deep frying
Sauce
1. 1 tablespoon soy sauce
2. 3 tablespoons rice wine (or mirin)
3. 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar (or rice wine vinegar)
4. 1 tablespoon gochujang (Korean red chili pepper paste)
5. 3 tablespoons honey (or corn or rice syrup)
6. 2 teaspoons sesame oil
7. 2 tablespoons brown sugar
8. 1 teaspoon minced garlic
9. 1 teaspoon grated ginger
10. pinch pepper
11. 1 to 2 tablespoons coarsely chopped peanuts (or almonds) for garnish
Instructions
1.Soak the chicken pieces in milk for at least 2 hours in the fridge. This step is optional.
2. Drain thoroughly. Remove any visible fat. Cut the chicken into bite sized pieces. Mix with the salt,
pepper, rice wine (if you didnt use milk) garlic, and ginger. Let it stand for 20 to 30 minutes.
3. In a pan, add all the sauce ingredients, and stir well. Bring it to a boil. When it starts to bubble, reduce
the heat to medium low, and simmer until it thickens slightly, about 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the heat off.
4. Add the potato (or corn) starch to the chicken, and mix well to coat evenly.
5. Pour about 1 inch of oil in to a heavy bottom pan. When the oil is sufficiently hot (350F or starts
smoking), drop the chicken pieces in one at a time. Fry them in two batches. Overcrowding will drop the oil
temperature too quickly. Cook until light golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove and set them on a wire rack
or a paper towel-lined plate.
6. Reheat the oil to 350F. Deep fry again until golden brown, about 30 to 40 seconds. You can do the
second frying in one batch.
7. Heat the sauce over medium low heat. Add the chicken and stir well until the chicken pieces are evenly
coated.
