Crispy Sweet Paprika Chicken Bites

Chicken Crunchy Paprika: A Delightful Crispy Dish

Ingredients:

• 500g Chicken Fillet: Cut into cubes
• 1 Onion: Finely chopped
• 1 Red Bell Pepper: Sliced
• 1 Green Bell Pepper: Sliced
• 2 tablespoons Sweet Soy Sauce
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 1 tablespoon Oyster Sauce

For Marinade:

• 1 Egg: Beaten
• 10 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper
• 2 tablespoons Oyster Sauce

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Chicken:

   • Dice the chicken fillets into bite-sized cubes. Wash them thoroughly and ensure they are completely drained of any excess water.

2. Marinate the Chicken:

   • In a bowl, combine the beaten egg, cornstarch, black pepper, and oyster sauce to create the marinade. Add the chicken cubes to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Allow the chicken to marinate for 40 minutes to absorb the flavors.

3. Fry the Chicken:

   • Heat a generous amount of oil in a pan. Fry the marinated chicken cubes in the hot oil until they turn golden brown and crispy. For best results, ensure the chicken pieces are submerged in oil to achieve an even, crunchy texture. (Using a deep pan or fryer can be advantageous for this step.)

4. Prepare the Sauce:

   • In a separate pan, melt some butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until it becomes translucent and fragrant.
   • Add the sliced red and green bell peppers to the pan and stir-fry until they begin to soften.
   • Pour in the sweet soy sauce, honey, and oyster sauce. Add a small amount of water to help blend the flavors.

5. Thicken the Sauce:

   • Dissolve a small amount of cornstarch in a bit of water and stir it into the sauce mixture. Continue to cook and stir until the sauce thickens and begins to bubble.

6. Combine and Serve:

   • Once the sauce has thickened to your liking, add the crispy chicken pieces to the pan. Toss the chicken in the sauce until it is evenly coated.
   • Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Once everything is well-combined and the sauce has completely enveloped the chicken, remove from heat.

7. Serve:

   • Your Chicken Crunchy Paprika is now ready to be enjoyed! Serve immediately and savor the crispy texture of the chicken paired with the sweet and savory flavors of the sauce.

Tip: This dish pairs wonderfully with steamed rice or as a topping for a fresh salad. Enjoy the delightful crunch and rich flavor in every bite!
