Instructions:
Grab all ingredients and equipment.
Combine your potato starch and Moving Right Oolong in a shallow bowl, then set to side until needed.
Place a layer of plastic wrap on your cutting board, then your chicken, and another layer of plastic wrap on top.
Using a meat mallet, pound it out nice and thin, about 1/2 of an inch thick. Repeat until all chicken is finished.
Remove and discard the plastic wrap.
Coat all of your pieces in the starch mixture, patting off the excess.
Prepare a pan for frying, size depends on amount of chicken you're making.
Have a large plate or cutting board coated in paper towels for draining ready.
Coat the bottom of the pan in oil, about 1 cm or 1/3 inch deep.
Heat it on medium. When oil is hot, test it with a dust of the starch mix. If it's bubbling and floating, it's ready.
Place chicken pieces in, and cook until nicely golden, about 5 minutes.
Flip it over, and cook until that side is also golden.
Take out and drain on the paper towels.
Feel free to enjoy it however you like! In the video, I had spinach salad with carrot, tomato, chickpeas, croutons, and a soft-boiled tea egg. Probably recognize it from last week's video. I drizzled balsamic glaze on top with Moving Right Oolong EVOO.
Stay Spicy, Spice Lubbers!
