Preparation

Step 1

1. Heat a good amount of oil in a large skillet on medium-high heat (enough to submerge each chicken piece about half-way).

2. In a medium bowl combine ingredients for cornstarch/flour mixture. Set aside.

3. In a large bowl combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, beaten eggs and cold water to form a creamy batter.

4. Dip the chicken pieces into the batter and then roll in cornstarch/flour mixture. Drop each piece in the skillet and fry until cooked through, turning once...(about 2-3 minutes per side). Drain on a paper towel lined plate.

5. In a small dish mix together the honey and the sweet chili sauce. Pour over the chicken bites and serve.
