Baking Tips
For extra crispiness, double-fry the chicken by frying once, letting it rest, and frying again for 1-2 minutes.
Adjust the amount of black pepper and red pepper flakes to control the spice level.
Use cornstarch in the batter for a lighter and crispier texture.
Serve with rice, mashed potatoes, or steamed veggies for a complete meal.
For a smoky twist, add a dash of smoked paprika to the sauce.
