Ingredients

Chicken

canola oil, for frying
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup flour
1/2 cup cornstarch
1 large egg
1 teaspoon hot sauce (I prefer Frank’s RedHot)
1 teaspoon sea salt
2 cups panko breadcrumbs
2 chicken breasts, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces

Sauce

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 green onions, chopped
1/2 teaspoon ginger, minced
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon red curry powder
1 cup coconut milk
1/2 cup chicken broth

For Serving

crushed peanuts
steamed white rice
cilantro or parsley or lime wedges, for garnish

Here’s how to make it:

Heat canola oil to 365 degrees F in a deep fryer or deep-dish pan.
In a medium-sized bowl, combine milk, flour, cornstarch, egg, hot sauce and sea salt. Mix well. Place the panko breadcrumbs in a different bowl. Dip each chicken breast into the batter and then the breadcrumbs. Gently place each chicken piece in the oil and cook until lightly golden, about 4 to 5 minutes.
Heat a pan over medium heat. When the pan is hot, add olive oil. Add the green onions, ginger and garlic. Sauté for about 2 minutes. Add the red curry powder, coconut milk and stock. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes. Lower the heat and reduce the sauce by about a third.
Drizzle the sauce over the chicken. Garnish with crushed peanuts or cilantro or lime wedges, if desired, and serve over white rice.
