Ingredients
1cupChicken breast(bite-sized)
1tbspGinger garlic paste
1tspBlack pepper (crushed)
¾tspRed paprika
1tspAll spice powder
1tspSalt
2tbspCorn starch
1pcEgg (beaten)
1cupBread crumbs
1cupOil(For frying)
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, add the chicken breast pieces, ginger garlic paste, black pepper, red paprika, all spice powder, and salt. Mix well.
1 cup Chicken breast, 1 tbsp Ginger garlic paste, 1 tsp Black pepper, ¾ tsp Red paprika, 1 tsp All spice powder, 1 tsp Salt
Next, add the cornstarch and coat the chicken pieces well.
2 tbsp Corn starch
Pick up one piece of chicken and dip it in the beaten egg and then into the bread crumbs. Do that for all the pieces separately.
1 pc Egg, 1 cup Bread crumbs
Now let the pieces rest in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes.
In the meantime, heat the oil for frying.
1 cup Oil
Put each piece slowly into the oil once the oil is hot enough and fry them until done. Make sure you do not disturb the pieces much in the beginning as the breadcrumbs might fall away from the pieces. It should take about 2 minutes for the pieces to be cooked.
Once all the pieces are done, take them out on a paper towel so as to soak excess oil.
Serve hot with ketchup.
Notes
For extra crunch, you can double coat the chicken pieces with breadcrumbs.
Make sure you do not overcrowd the pan while frying. Else the coating will come off.
