Whether as a snack, main dish, or party food, it never fails to impress.

Start by marinating 500g of bite-sized chicken pieces with a pinch of salt, pepper, and 2 tbsp water. Coat them evenly in a mix of ½ cup plain flour and ½ cup corn flour. Heat oil in a deep pan and fry the chicken twice—first at 160°C (320°F) until lightly golden, then again at 180°C (355°F) until extra crispy.

Meanwhile, make the sauce by simmering 1 tbsp oil, 3 minced garlic cloves, 2 tbsp gochujang (Korean chili paste), 2 tbsp tomato sauce, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp honey, and ½ tsp chili powder over low heat until glossy.

Toss the hot fried chicken in the sauce until evenly coated. Garnish with sesame seeds if you like, and serve immediately. Want to see exactly how crispy it turns out? The full video is just below!
