A delightful blend of crunchy textures and intense flavors, Crispy Chilli Chicken is a family favorite that brings warmth and zest to your dinner table.


Ingredients

  • 500g chicken breast, shredded
  • 1 cup cornflour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper

  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1-2 teaspoons dried red chillies
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 1 bell pepper, sliced

  2. Coat the shredded chicken in the cornflour mixture.
  3. Heat vegetable oil in a pan over medium-high heat.
  4. Fry the chicken until golden and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  5. In the same pan, add the dried red chillies, sliced onion, and bell pepper. Sauté until the vegetables are slightly soft.
  6. Add the fried chicken back to the pan, drizzle with soy sauce, and stir well to combine.

Notes

For a twist, try adding different vegetables or swapping chicken for shrimp or tofu. Make sure not to overcrowd the pan while frying to maintain crispiness.
