Spice up your dinner routine with this irresistibly flavorful Crispy Sweet Chili Chicken! This recipe transforms simple ingredients into a mouth-watering dish with just the right balance of sweetness and heat.
In a shallow bowl, beat the egg. In another bowl, add the cornstarch. Dip each chicken piece into the beaten egg, then dredge thoroughly in the cornstarch, shaking off any excess. This coating will ensure a crispy finish.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the chicken pieces in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes per batch. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Heat a tablespoon of oil in a skillet. Add the minced garlic and ginger, sautéing for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Stir in the sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and brown sugar. If you prefer extra heat, add red pepper flakes. Bring to a simmer.
