chicken pieces

🥗Healthier: skinless chicken

💰Cheaper: chicken thighs

Skinless chicken reduces fat content.

Cut boneless chicken into small cubes.

Soak chicken in vinegar for at least 1 hour.

Remove chicken from vinegar and drain excess.

Add salt, chicken powder, black pepper, red chili powder, and ginger garlic paste to the chicken.

Mix in 3 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of gram flour, and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch.

Add 2 eggs to the mixture and mix well, ensuring no water is added to keep the batter thick.

Let the batter rest for 10 to 15 minutes.

Heat oil on low heat.

Carefully add chicken pieces one by one to the oil, ensuring they are spaced apart to avoid sticking.

Fry until one side is firm and light brown, then flip to cook the other side.

Maintain low heat to ensure the chicken cooks through without burning the outside.

Once both sides are golden brown, remove chicken using a strainer to drain excess oil.

Serve with ketchup or mayonnaise.
