Step 1: Bang Bang Fried Chicken

Begin by preparing the chicken. In a bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Dredge each chicken thigh in the mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.

Step 2:

Pour buttermilk into a separate bowl. Dip the coated chicken thighs into the buttermilk, allowing any excess to drip off.

Step 3:

Return the chicken to the flour mixture for a second coating. Press the flour mixture onto the chicken to create a crispy outer layer.

Step 4:

In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Fry the chicken thighs until they are golden brown and cooked through, approximately 6-8 minutes per side.

Step 5: Spicy Sweet Chili Sauce

While the chicken is frying, prepare the Spicy Sweet Chili Sauce. In a saucepan, combine sweet chili sauce, Sriracha sauce, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.

Step 6:

Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the skillet and let it rest on a paper towel to absorb excess oil. Drizzle the Spicy Sweet Chili Sauce over the fried chicken.

Step 7:

Sprinkle chopped green onions and sesame seeds over the chicken for a burst of freshness and nuttiness.

Step 8: Jalapeno Poppers

For an extra treat, let’s make Jalapeno Poppers. Cut the jalapeno peppers in half and remove the seeds.

Step 9:

In a bowl, mix cream cheese, cheddar cheese, chopped cilantro, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Fill each jalapeno half with the cheese mixture.

Step 10:

Dip the filled jalapenos in beaten egg, then coat them in breadcrumbs.

Step 11:

Place the jalapeno poppers on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.

You’ve just mastered the art of Bang Bang Fried Chicken with Spicy Sweet Chili Sauce, Green Onions & Sesame Seeds, and Jalapeno Poppers.
