Ingredients
  

  • 3 1/2 lbs of boneless chicken thighs
  • 3/4 cups of all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons of sesame seeds (roasted)
  • 2/3 cup of shoyu (Aloha shoyu if possible)
  • 1/4 cup of apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup of brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup of sweetener or sugar of your choice
  • 3 teaspoons of hot sauce
  • 2 tablespoons of honey
  • 1/3 cup of green onions
  • 1 tablespoon of sesame seed oil
  • vegetable oil

Instructions

  • Prepare the chicken
    Gather all of your ingredients. Grab the chicken thighs and cut each thigh into bite-sized chunks. You can remove the skin and any fatty parts of the chicken at this point if you'd prefer. Cover the chicken pieces completely in flour. Ensure it is entirely covered. Then cover with saran wrap and place in the refrigerator for at least an hour - longer is better. It's important to leave it this long so that the flour bonds with the chicken. It should now be pale pink in color.

  • Make the sauce
    Grab a bowl and add the following ingredients: roasted sesame seeds, vinegar, brown sugar, sugar/sweetener/hot sauce, honey, green onions, sesame seed oil, and shoyu. Mix well to create a sauce. Using a large bowl is ideal for this part of the recipe.
    2 teaspoons of sesame seeds (roasted), 2/3 cup of shoyu (Aloha shoyu if possible), 1/4 cup of apple cider vinegar, 1/4 cup of brown sugar, 1/4 cup of sweetener or sugar of your choice, 2 tablespoons of honey, 1/3 cup of green onions, 1 tablespoon of sesame seed oil, 3 teaspoons of hot sauce
  • Fry the chicken
    Using a fryer, or deep pan (with at least half an inch of oil), heat the oil and leave the temperature on high. Once you start cooking, you can reduce it slightly. Now place the chicken pieces into the fryer one at a time (this achieves best results). After a minute, flip the chicken over and add more chicken pieces. Each side should be cooked for around 5 minutes. Just before you remove the chicken, you can blast the heat to high to get the chicken extra crispy.

  • Dip in sauce
    Once chicken is cooked, remove and dip into your prepared sauce. To avoid mess, you can place the chicken onto paper towels once dipped. It's best to dip each piece of chicken in individually to get maximum flavor from the sauce.
  • Serve
    Your chicken is now ready to serve! Enjoy on its own or with a side dish of your choice.
