CHINESE-FLAVORED FRIED CHICKEN WITH GREEN ONION-GINGER DIPPING SAUCE
Steps:
- Make dipping sauce:
- Whisk all ingredients in small bowl to blend. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
- Make chicken:
- Whisk eggs, soy sauce and sesame oil in large bowl to blend. Add chicken to egg mixture, turning to coat. Cover; chill at least 2 hours or overnight.
- Heat vegetable oil in heavy large pot over medium-high heat to 375°F. Mix flour, ground ginger, salt and pepper in another bowl. Add chicken thighs and drumsticks to flour mixture; turn to coat.
- Add fresh ginger to oil. Fry chicken thighs and drumsticks in hot oil until golden and cooked through, about 10 minutes per side. Using tongs, transfer chicken to paper towels; drain. Coat chicken breasts and wings with flour mixture. Fry until golden and cooked through, about 6 minutes per side. Transfer to paper towels. (Can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.) Serve with dipping sauce.
Tips:
- Choose the right chicken: Use bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs or drumsticks for the best flavor and texture.
- Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in a mixture of soy sauce, rice wine, ginger, and garlic for at least 30 minutes helps to infuse it with flavor.
- Use a light touch when breading the chicken: Dredge the chicken in flour, then egg, then panko breadcrumbs. Be sure to shake off any excess breading before frying.
- Fry the chicken in hot oil: Heat the oil to 350°F (175°C) before adding the chicken. Fry the chicken in batches until it is golden brown and cooked through.
- Make the dipping sauce: While the chicken is frying, make the dipping sauce by combining green onions, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil.
- Serve the chicken with the dipping sauce: Serve the fried chicken hot with the dipping sauce on the side. Enjoy!
