   • In a large bowl, combine the chicken pieces, minced garlic, ground pepper, chicken bouillon powder, and salt. Mix thoroughly to ensure the chicken is well-coated with the seasonings.
   • Cover the bowl and refrigerate for several hours, preferably overnight. The longer the chicken marinates, the more flavorful it will be. If you plan to cook the chicken the next day, it’s best to marinate it today and store it in a covered container in the refrigerator.

2. Prepare the Coating:

   • In a separate plate, combine the all-purpose flour and cornstarch. There’s no need to season the flour mixture with any additional spices.

3. Coat the Chicken:

   • Remove the marinated chicken from the refrigerator.
   • Crack the egg into the bowl with the chicken and mix until all the pieces are evenly coated with the egg.
   • Roll each piece of chicken in the flour and cornstarch mixture. Press and squeeze the flour mixture onto the chicken to create a crinkly texture on the surface.

4. Fry the Chicken:

   • Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat. It’s important to maintain the right temperature to ensure the chicken cooks evenly without burning the outside while the inside remains undercooked.
   • Fry the chicken pieces in the hot oil. Be mindful not to overcrowd the pan to maintain the oil temperature. Adjust the heat as necessary to avoid burning the coating while ensuring the chicken is fully cooked inside.
   • Fry until the chicken pieces are golden brown and crispy on the outside.

5. Serve:

   • Once fried, remove the chicken pieces from the oil and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
   • Serve the Ayam Goreng Tepung hot and enjoy its crunchy, flavorful goodness.
