Critical Success Points

  • Marinate the chicken for 30 minutes in the refrigerator for optimal tenderness.
  • Precisely control the oil temperature (170 °C then 190 °C) to achieve the right crispness.
  • Thicken the sauce correctly with the diluted starch to avoid lumps.

Safety Warnings

  • Frying oil reaches very high temperatures; handle with care and use a thermometer.
  • Never leave the oil unattended.
  • Watch out for splatters when plunging the chicken.
