Chicken Fondue (Hot Oil Recipe)

  • 4

Ingredients

  • SAUCE:
  • 1 cup dried bread crumbs
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground red pepper (or to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 eggs
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 8 About 8 cups peanut oil OR canola oil
  • 12 ounces chili sauce
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped onion
  • 1/4 clove garlic, minced

Preparation

Step 1

In a bowl, combine first 7 ingredients (bread crumbs through pepper). In a second bowl, beat the eggs. Coat each chicken cube first with the eggs, then immediately roll in bread crumb mixture; place on a paper towel lined plate and refrigerate until fondue time. Fill 2/3 of your stainless steel fondue pot with oil. Don’t over-fill it as hot oil could get splashed on your guests. Heat the oil to 350 to 375 degrees. Cook chicken cubes for 1 to 2 minutes or until done. Allow chicken to cool a little; dip into sauce.
