   • Begin by cleaning the chicken pieces thoroughly. Make shallow cuts in the meat to ensure the marinade penetrates well.
   • Rub the chicken with lime juice and let it marinate for approximately 15 minutes. After marinating, rinse the chicken and set it aside.

2. Prepare the Coating:

   • In a small bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour with 4 tablespoons of ice water to create a batter.
   • Dip each chicken piece into the batter, making sure it’s evenly coated. Place the battered chicken in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to allow the coating to set.

3. Fry the Chicken:

   • Heat a generous amount of oil in a pan over low heat to avoid burning the chicken.
   • Remove the chicken from the refrigerator and coat it with dry all-purpose flour, pressing it in to ensure it sticks. Shake off any excess flour.
   • Gently place the coated chicken into the hot oil. Fry the chicken without frequently turning it to ensure it remains crispy and absorbs less oil. Fry until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through.
   • Once fried, remove the chicken from the oil and let it drain on paper towels.

4. Prepare the Sambal:

   • In a mortar and pestle, grind the bird’s eye chilies, garlic, and salt into a smooth paste.
   • Heat a small amount of oil in a pan until hot. Pour the hot oil over the sambal paste and mix well.

5. Assemble and Serve:

   • Place the fried chicken on a serving plate. Using a pestle or the back of a spoon, gently crush the chicken to flatten it slightly.
   • Pour the sambal over the chicken, ensuring it is generously coated.
   • For an authentic touch, you can use a mortar and pestle to crush the chicken further over the sambal.

6. Enjoy:

   • Serve the Ayam Geprek Bensu KW Endess immediately with warm white rice. For an extra treat, enjoy it in front of a fan to keep cool while savoring the spicy flavors.
