Hi welcome to cook Stacy cook in today’s episode I would like to share with you my version of salt and pepper chicken this is a Savory chicken dish that everyone would love I will show you the tips and tricks to make the chicken crispy on the outside and tender on the
Inside let’s get started first we will prepare the aromatics for this dish finally mean Sun garlic put 1 tablespoon of garlic aside for use at the end and we will use the rest of the garlic for marinating the chicken next dice a quarter of an onion and chop up four to five green
Onions we are only using the St part of the green onion the last aromatic we need is some peppers I am using harapo pepper here you can use bell pepper for a less spicy option now the chicken you can use skinless chicken breast or chicken thigh cut the chicken into medium thickness slices
Then cut the chicken slices in half the final chicken piece should look more or less like this marinate the chicken with salt sugar white pepper powder meanc garlic and rice wine mix everything together while the chicken is marinating we will prepare the salt and pepper seasoning add some salt a tiny bit of
Sugar garlic powder black pepper powder and white pepper powder we will lightly toast them before we sprinkle them on the chicken the last thing to prepare is the better for frying the chicken for the better I use corn starch allpurpose flour baking soda water and little bit of oil the amount I
Use for each ingredient is in the video description after mixing the batter thoroughly we can add the chicken to the batter mix the chicken with the batter so that every piece is evenly coated with a thin layer of batter now we are ready to fry the
Chicken when it comes to frying the key to success is good temperature control unless you are very experienced in frying I strong strongly recommend you get a good cooking thermometer to check the temperature of the oil we will fry the chicken twice the first time we will fry the chicken at
320° f as you can see here I hit the oil to 350° F instead of 320° f high this is because I am using a relatively small amount of oil when I put the chicken in the oil the oil temperature will drop put the chicken in
The oil piece by piece make sure you don’t overcrowd the chicken if you have to fry the chicken in batches don’t stir the chicken right after you put that in it takes about a minute for the batter to take shape for this first frying we will fry the chicken for 3
Minutes when the chicken starts to throw to the top you can break cut any pieces that are stuck together check the temperature of the oil often and adjust the heat as needed after frying for 3 minutes remove the chicken from the oil now we need to
Let this chicken rest for at least 15 minutes while we wait for the chicken to cool down we can toast the salt and pepper seasoning pour the seasoning into a pan over medium low heat stir frequently to prevent burning and toast it for 1 minute when it’s done remove it
From the pan and it’s ready to use back to the chicken after resting for 15 minutes we can fry the chicken again for this second frying the oil temperature needs to be 380° f which is 195° C again I heat the oil to 20° F above my target frying temperature we will only
Fry the chicken for 20 seconds this time the purpose for the second frying is to make the batter crispy stir the chicken occasionally so the golden color will look even when the 20 seconds is up remove the chicken from the oil and putting in a large bowl while the chicken is still
Hot sprinkle the salt and pepper seasoning on the chicken toss the chicken as you sprinkle the seasoning so that every piece it Seasons evenly at this point the chicken is tasty enough to eat but for a restaurant quality dish we can add a final touch Heat at the pan
Over medium heat and add a little bit of oil when the oil is still cold add the meanc garlic we set aside earlier stir the garlic constantly as the oil heats up when the garlic starts to turn yellow add the onion green onion and pepper to the pan stirfry them briefly to bring
Out the flavor then pour the aromatic to the chicken mix it with the chicken and we are done this salt and pepper chicken it’s crisp be on the outside and tender on the inside it’s Savory with a hint of pepper I hope you give this recipe a try

Oh wow this looks very flavourful and delicious… definitely keeping this one 🩵⭐️
looks so good. I had salt and pepper chicken many years ago at my local corner Chinese restaurant for the first time and loved it but theirs had a sauce to it. Do you have a recipe for the sauce?
Good cooking
Awesome recipe! Gave this a go tonight and the results were amazing. A hint of lemon on the chicken at the end took it to another level for me, but this was great and easy!
I have no idea why but UK Chinese is better than American Chinese.. Also neither are good compared to living there you really need to go to China 🙂
This was awesome…making it tomorrow for sure…
I might try that😊
this looks like a doable recipe.
THANK YOU! I am making this as a snack for my family today.
Brine the chicken first use potato starch it gives the correct texture to the coating and can withstand higher temperatures than cornflour
Cook! Stacey Cook please can you do a delicious Chicken Curry recipe soon. Thanks!

Hi Stacey I love all your recipes you are a great teacher ❤️ would you have a recipe for sweet and sour chicken balls? Thank you
Looks great but I would like to see a cross view or someone take a bite and let me see the middle.
I gave this a thumbs down because I don't like when people don't tell how much ingredients they're using. Next time say how much garlic, ginger and salt you're using!
