It just tastes incredible!
The chicken is bursting with this lemony, sweet, savory, and spicy sauce.
I highly recommend this dish.
If you let it sit for too long, it will be less crispy.
Serve it with white rice, roasted asparagus, green beans, or mashed potatoes.
Transfer to a bowl.
Mix until well combined.
Set aside for 20 minutes to marinate.
Step 3:
In a different bowl, add the sauce ingredients and mix until well combined.
Step 4:
Make the breading.
In a large ziplock bag, add 2/3 cups of cornstarch and 2/3 cups of all-purpose flour.
Step 5:
Add the marinated chicken into the ziplock bag and shake until well-coated.
Use a strainer to remove excess breading then transfer to a bowl.
Step 6:
Crack one egg into the chicken and mix until well incorporated.
Place the chicken back into the bag and shake to coat again.
Use a strainer to get rid of excess flour.
Let it rest for 15 minutes.
Step 7:
Heat 2/3 cups of oil to 400F.
Before adding the second batch, remove flour crumbs using a fine strainer.
Transfer to a plate lined with a paper towel.
Step 8:
Remove most of the oil from the wok then pour in the sauce.
Stir over medium heat for a few minutes or until it thickens.
Toss until well coated with the sauce.
