Ingredients
Instructions
- Cut chicken into 1-inch cubes and dry them with paper towels. In a bowl, combine the cornstarch and white flour together. Add in the chicken cubes and mix well to coat them evenly.
- Heat up vegetable oil in the fryer or skillet until it reaches 350°C. Add the chicken cubes into the fryer or skillet and deep fry them for about 6-8 minutes. Make sure to turn them occasionally for even cooking.
- When the chicken nuggets are golden brown, remove them from the heat and drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Pour this mixture over the fried chicken nuggets and mix well to coat them evenly. Serve the Japanese chicken nuggets warm with a side of steamed rice or your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
- Make sure that the oil is hot enough before adding in the chicken cubes; this will ensure proper cooking and a nice, crispy coating.
- Be careful not to overfill the fryer or skillet with chicken cubes as this will lower the temperature of the oil and result in soggy nuggets.
- If you prefer a less spicy version, omit the garlic cloves from the marinade and reduce the amount of ginger root used.
