Critical Success Points

  • Slice the chicken thinly to keep it tender.
  • Soak the chicken in seasoned milk to tenderize it.
  • Prepare the sweet chili sauce by simmering it until it reduces and thickens, without adding any water.
  • Give the chicken a double coating of frying powder for added crispiness.
  • Fry the chicken in two rounds at 170 °C until it attains a golden‑brown, crispy texture.

Safety Warnings

  • Exercise caution when frying in hot oil to prevent burns.
  • Keep the oil at a steady temperature to avoid splattering and scorching.
  • Employ a thermometer to keep tabs on oil temperature, ensuring safety and optimal results.
