Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 50 g plain flour
  • 2 eggs lightly beaten
  • 100 g breadcrumbs
For the sticky glaze:
  • 4 tbsp sweet chilli sauce
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sriracha
  • ½ tsp garlic paste
  • 5 g parsley chopped

Instructions

  • To make the sticky glaze, add all the ingredients into a tray and mix it well. Set aside.
  • Cut the chicken breasts into 4 strips, lengthways. Then coat each piece in flour, beaten eggs, and finally the breadcrumbs.
  • Pour some cooking oil into a large frying pan, so that it’s about ½ cm deep. Heat it over a medium to high heat. Drop some breadcrumbs in, and they should sizzle when the oil is hot enough. Shallow fry the chicken until it us golden and crispy all over. You may want to turn the heat down to a medium heat to prevent the breadcrumbs burning.
  • Remove them from the pan and onto kitchen paper to get rid of any excess oil.
  • Place each piece of crispy chicken into the sticky glaze, then turn them over until they are completely coated.
  • Dish them up and enjoy. I served these with some rice and pak choi.
