Cost Breakdown
Critical Success Points
- • Slice chicken uniformly to ensure quick, even cooking
- • Achieve a light, sparse coating; avoid heavy batter
- • Heat oil fully before adding chicken to get crispness
- • Fry on high flame for only 1‑1.5 minutes per side to keep meat juicy
- • Cook garlic only until light golden; over‑browning changes flavor
- • Add cornstarch slurry gradually to control sauce thickness
- • Toss chicken in sauce on high heat for a glossy coating
Safety Warnings
- • Hot oil can cause severe burns – handle with care and keep a lid nearby
- • Butter can burn quickly; keep heat at medium when melting
- • Use a sharp knife cautiously when slicing chicken
