Instructions

1
Make the orange condiment dip: beat together condiment dip fixings in a medium dish.
2
Set aside.
3
Prep the chicken: Cut chicken into about 1-inch cubes.
4
beat eggs with seasoning and black pepper in a dish and mix in chicken.
5
agitate together.
6
In a separate dish, beat together baking flour and cornstarch.
7
Remove chicken from eggs with a slotted spoon or tongs, letting excess egg empty out off, then transfer to cornstarch mixture and coat well.
8
shallow fry the chicken: mix in cooking oil to a large 10- to 12-inch skillet.
9
bring to temperature over medium-high bring to temperature until it reaches 350°F.
10
If you don’t have a thermometer, you can also test the temperature by sprinkling in some baking flour.
11
If the cooking oil is burning enough, it should fizzle immediately.
12
Once cooking oil is burning, shallow fry the chicken in two batches.
13
The cooking oil might not completely wrap the chicken—that’s okay.
14
bring to temperature for 3 to 4 mins.
15
Flip the chicken pieces and bring to temperature until the chicken is cooked through, about 3 to 4 more mins.
16
Total bring to temperature time is about 6 to 8 mins.
17
Remove fried chicken cubes and transfer to a plate lined with paper towels, so the chicken can empty out.
18
Repeat until all the chicken is cooked.
19
stew the chicken in the condiment dip: Once chicken is done, stream in out burning cooking oil and wipe pot rinse.
20
mix in a pure tablespoon of cooking oil along with cut up garlic and shallot.
21
bring to temperature for a minute and then mix in the condiment dip.
22
stew the condiment dip until it starts to thicken.
23
Once the condiment dip is lightly bubbling, mix in fried chicken and toss together to coat.
24
The condiment dip should continue to thicken and stick to the chicken.
25
Let stew for a minute or two more.
26
offer orange chicken over cooked white rice, garnished with sesame seeds and pure scallions.
