💡 Pro Tips
- ✓Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes to enhance flavor, or overnight for best results.
- ✓Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F for safe consumption.
- ✓If you don't have potato starch, cornstarch can be a good substitute for coating the chicken.
- ✓To prevent sticking, make sure your frying oil is hot enough before adding the chicken.
