Instructions
Step 1
In a small bowl, mix 1 tablespoon cornstarch and ½ cup water until well combined. This is your cornstarch slurry. Set aside.
Step 2
Dice chicken into 1.5-inch pieces. Avoid patting the chicken dry as moisture is needed for the next step.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, add diced chicken, followed by ¼ cup cornstarch. Toss the chicken in the cornstarch and set aside.
Step 4
In a large pan on medium-high heat, heat vegetable oil. Fry chicken in small batches until golden brown on both sides, about 6-8 minutes. Remove chicken from pan and transfer to a wire rack or a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil.
Step 5
On medium heat, add ginger, garlic, and red chili. Fry for 10 seconds.
Step 6
Next add hoisin sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil and mix well before adding cornstarch slurry. Mix sauce ingredients until combined. Simmer to thicken.
Step 7
Toss in fried chicken and mix everything together. Remove off heat. Transfer to serving dish. Optional: Garnish with red chili and green onions if desired. Enjoy!
