Step 1
In a bowl, toss the chicken with salt, pepper, cornflour, and an egg until everything is well coated. Let it marinate for about an hour.
Step 2
Heat about 2 cups of oil in a pan. Fry the chicken pieces until they turn golden brown and crispy. Once done, take them out and drain the excess oil, leaving about 1½ cups in the pan.
Step 3
Add the fried chicken back into the pan. Pour in the barbecue sauce, soy sauce, fresh ginger, and chopped chilies. Stir everything together and cook for another minute or so until the chicken is nicely coated and heated through.
Step 4
Serve hot and enjoy your flavorful ginger chili chicken!
What To Serve With This Dish
Serve this chicken over steamed rice or alongside sautéed vegetables for a complete meal. A side of crunchy green beans or a simple cucumber salad can add a refreshing contrast to the warm spices.
Storage Suggestions
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a pan or microwave to keep the chicken moist and prevent the ginger from becoming too intense. Avoid freezing if possible, as the texture may change.
