  • subheading: BEFORE YOU BEGIN:
  • We recommend using a rasp-style grater to grate the ginger. Do not substitute chicken breasts for the thighs; they will dry out during frying. There's no need to take the temperature of the chicken; it will be cooked through by the time it is golden brown and crispy. Leftover frying oil can be cooled, strained, and saved for later use.
