Recipe: Chicken poppers

Who doesn't love chicken poppers? They're so easy to eat, no fuss and you get yourself a delish snack. Since I like my food spicy, here's my take on Chicken Poppers. Same old technique, but definitely better tasting.

Ingredients

Chicken breast -- 1, cubed

Mustard (plain or Dijon) -- 1 teaspoon

Red chilli powder -- ½ teaspoon

Black pepper -- ½ teaspoon

Garlic powder -- ½ teaspoon

Salt -- to taste

For flour mix:

All-purpose flour -- 1 cup

Cornstarch -- 3 tablespoons

Salt -- ½ teaspoon

Garlic powder -- ½ teaspoon


Red chilli powder -- ½ teaspoon

Black pepper -- ½ teaspoon

Egg -- 1, beaten

Milk -- a dash

For honey mustard dipping sauce:

Mustard -- 4-5 tablespoons

Honey -- 2-3 tablespoons

Method

In a mixing bowl, add chicken and all spices. Mix together and marinate for at least 2 hours.

Separately, mix together flour, cornstarch and all spices in a ziplock bag, set aside. Now beat an egg and add a dash of milk in it.

When the chicken is marinated, dip it in egg mixture first and then transfer into the ziplock bag. Shake the bag so the chicken pieces get coated nicely and evenly.

Then deep fry the chicken until golden brown. Now make the dipping sauce by mixing together mustard and honey.

Enjoy your chicken poppers with the dipping sauce!
