Ingredients
For the Chicken
* 500 g chicken breast, cut into chunks
* 3 tbsp cornstarch
* 1 tsp garlic powder
* 1 tsp onion powder
* 1 tsp paprika
* 1 tsp salt
* ½ tsp black pepper
For Dredging
* 60 g (½ cup) all-purpose flour
For the Batter
* 125 g (1 cup) all-purpose flour
* 30 g (2 tbsp) cornstarch
* 1 tsp baking powder
* 1 tsp paprika
* 1 tsp garlic powder
* ½ tsp salt
* 180–240 ml (¾–1 cup) cold water
For Frying
* Neutral oil
Instructions
1. Prepare the chicken: Add the chicken to a food processor and pulse until finely minced. Mix with cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Shape into bite-sized nuggets and freeze for 30–45 minutes until firm.
2. Make the batter: Whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, paprika, garlic powder, and salt. Gradually add the cold water and whisk until smooth and thick.
3. Coat the nuggets: Lightly coat each chilled nugget in flour, then dip into the batter, letting the excess drip off.
4. Fry: Heat the oil to 175°C (350°F). Fry in batches for 4–5 minutes, turning occasionally, until crispy and golden and the chicken reaches 74°C (165°F) internally.
5. Serve: Drain on a wire rack or paper towels and enjoy hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
