📝 Preparation Steps
1
Dry Chicken: Add the chicken to a large bowl and pat the chicken dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This helps the batter stay on the chicken!
2
Marinate: Add 2 tablespoons of cornstarch to the chicken and toss to combine. Let the chicken marinate while you are making the batter.

Cool: Remove from the oil and transfer to a baking sheet topped with a cooling rack.

2nd Fry: Once all of the chicken is cooked fry the chicken again in batches (starting with the 1st batch you fried this will be the coldest) Fry for ⏱️ 3 minutes or until the outside is a nice golden brown. Remove from the oil and place back on the cooling rack.
