-
Prepare the Chicken:
Begin by boiling the chicken pieces with 1 bay leaf until the water reaches a boil. Once done, drain the chicken thoroughly. -
Marinate the Chicken:
In a bowl, crush 2 cloves of garlic and add a small amount of water. Mix in the Kentucky seasoned flour, and then add the chicken pieces. Allow the mixture to marinate for about 30 minutes, giving the flavors time to infuse into the chicken. -
-
Fry the Chicken:
Heat oil in a frying pan and fry the marinated chicken until it turns golden brown. Once fried, remove the chicken and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil. -
Prepare the Sauce:
In a separate pan, sauté finely chopped onion and dried chilies until fragrant. Add the oyster sauce, soy sauce, and tomato sauce, adjusting the quantities to taste. -
Season the Sauce:
Add a pinch of sugar and salt to the sauce mixture. For extra heat, you can include ground black pepper. Stir in a small amount of water to achieve the desired consistency. -
Combine Chicken and Sauce:
Mix the crispy fried chicken with the prepared sauce. Allow the chicken to absorb the flavors of the sauce, ensuring it is evenly coated. -
Serve:
Once the chicken is well-coated with the sauce and the flavors have melded, it is ready to be served. You can either mix the sauce with the chicken or drizzle the sauce over the chicken before serving.
