Mix 250g minced boneless chicken with 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, and 1/4 teaspoon white pepper.

Add 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour to the chicken mixture and mix well.

Apply water on palms and shape the mixture into nuggets.

Place the nuggets on a parchment paper lined tray and freeze for 1 hour until firm.

Prepare the coating by mixing 1/2 cup all-purpose flour with a pinch of salt.

Dip each nugget in cold water, then coat with the flour mixture.

In a separate bowl, prepare the batter by mixing 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup cornstarch, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon onion powder, 1/4 teaspoon white pepper, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon baking soda.

Add 1 beaten egg and 6 tablespoons of chilled water to the dry ingredients, adding the water bit by bit while whisking to create a lump-free smooth thin batter.

Heat oil in a deep fryer to medium heat.
