At a glance

You're making crispy chicken bites with a punchy sweet and spicy sauce—the main work is getting the chicken properly coated in three layers (cornstarch, egg, and seasoned flour) before frying. Everything comes together quickly in about 33 minutes, so you'll want to have your rice cooking while you handle the chicken, and finish with fresh herbs for that perfect aromatic touch.

About this recipe

Today's delicious chicken bites get a punchy sauce and fragrant rice to go with them. Just the way we like it. You don't have to stick with rice, though — crusty fresh baguette or a fresh salad work just as well. That part's up to you. But I'd definitely recommend finishing it off with a scattering of fresh herbs. You can't go wrong with chives, parsley, and especially coriander — they're the best match for this dish.
