Tips
You can make a big batch of the first sauce and keep it in the fridge.
Use chicken thighs for more flavor.
Drop chicken pieces one at a time when frying to prevent sticking.
Refreeze the fried chicken pieces before the second fry for a crispy texture.
Make sure the sauce is well mixed before adding it to the chicken.
