Ingredients

2 Chicken Breasts

1 c Flour

2 tsp Salt

1/2 tsp Black Pepper

1/4 tsp Cayenne Pepper

1/4 tsp Paprika

1 Egg

1 c Milk

4-8 c Oil

Ginger-Citrus Sauce

1 1/4 c Water

1 tbl Corn Starch

3/4 c Dark Brown Sugar

1/4 c Soy Sauce

2 tbl Minced Fresh Ginger

1 tsp Minced Garlic

2 tbl Lime Juice

1 tbl Lemon Juice

1/4 tsp Crushed Red Pepper Flakes

Preparation

Slice each chicken breast into 6 pieces. Combine flour, salt, peppers, and paprika in a medium bowl. In another bowl, whisk together egg and milk.

One or two at a time, dip each piece of chicken into the egg mixture, then into the breading blend; then repeat the process so that each piece of chicken is double-coated. When all chicken pieces have been breaded, arrange them on a plate and chill for 15 minutes.

Preheat 4-8 cups of oil (use the amount required by your fryer) in a deep fryer to 375 degrees.

Ginger-Citrus Sauce:

As the chicken is chilling, make the ginger-citrus sauce by dissolving the corn starch in the water. Pour the water into a medium sauce pan along with the rest of the sauce ingredients and bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. When the sauce begins to bubble, reduce heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes or until thick. Remove the sauce from the heat and let it cool a bit.

When the chicken has cooled, lower the chicken into the oil and fry for 5 to 6 minutes or until each piece is browned. When chicken is done frying, drain on paper towels.

When all the chicken is fried, place the pieces into a covered container, such as a large jar with a lid. Pour the Ginger-citrus sauce over the chicken in the container, cover it up, and then gently shake everything around until each piece of chicken is coated with sauce.

Pour the chicken onto a plate and serve the dish with Wasabi-Ranch Dressing.
