Brine
Ingredients
2 cups Water
1 Tbsp Salt
1 Tbsp White Sugar
1 tsp Black Pepper
1 tsp Chinese 5 Spice
2 Bay Leaves
1 tsp Garlic
1 tsp Ginger
1.5kg Chicken Tenderloins
Wet Batter
Ingredients
1/3 cup Flour
1/2 cup Water
1 egg
Seasoned Flour
Ingredients
2 cups Flour
1 tsp Chinese 5 Spice
1 tsp Paprika
1 tsp Black Pepper
2 tsp Chicken Powder
1 tsp Mustard Powder
Honey Garlic Sauce
Ingredients
1/2 cup Butter
1 Tbsp Garlic; minced
1/4 cup Honey
1 Tbsp Paprika
2 Tbsp Soy Sauce
Optional: Chilli Flakes to taste
Steps
In a large bowl, combine the brine ingredients together. Add in the chicken tenderloins and ensure that they are fully submerged in the brine. Refrigerate 1 hour.
In another bowl combine the wet batter ingredients and set aside for 1 hour.
In a large bowl combine the seasoned flour ingredients.
To prepare the honey garlic sauce melt the butter and add the garlic. Fry 2-3 minutes. Add in the honey, paprika and soy sauce and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
Heat up neutral oil in a large pan.
Remove the chicken from the brine and dip into the seasoned flour, then into the wet batter and coat again with the seasoned flour.
Fry immediately until golden and crispy, 7-10 minutes. Remove and place on a wire rack to drain the excess oil.
Brush the honey garlic sauce onto the fried chicken.
Serve and enjoy!
