Crispy Homemade Popcorn Chicken

Step 1

Combine all the marinade ingredients and rub over the chicken pieces. Put aside to marinate for at least 30 mins.

Step 2

Mix the flour, cornflour, baking powder and sriracha together. Add enough milk to make a batter of medium consistency.

Step 3

Season the flour with salt, black pepper and paprika.

Step 4

Pour the batter into the chicken and mix well.

Step 5

Pick one chicken piece at a time and coat well with the flour mix. Keep pressing with your fingers while you do it, this will give the flaky finish.

Step 6

Heat oil for deep-frying. Fry the chicken on medium-heat in batches, don't crowd the pan/fryer. Take out when the chicken is golden-brown and cooked through.

Step 7

Enjoy hot with your favourite dip!
