In a large pot with the stovetop heat turned OFF, combine all ingredients for the sauce. Whisk together until smooth, then let be while you prepared the chicken.
Bring 2-3” of neutral frying oil to 350F, until glistening.
In a large bowl, combine the chicken cut into bite-sized pieces and corn starch. Mix until chicken is coated.
Create a well in the center to add the egg, soy sauce, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix in the center, then incorporate into the chicken.
Sprinkle the baking powder and flour over the chicken. Mix well.
Working in small batches, fry the chicken bites for 5-6 minutes, until golden. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the chicken to a paper towel line baking rack or plate.
Once all chicken is fried, fry in small batches again for 1-2 minutes, until deeply golden and crispy. Repeat the slotted spoon and paper towel process.
Turn ON the stovetop for the sauce to medium high. Stir until bubbly and slightly thickened, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the chicken (if pan is big enough) and toss until well coated in the sauce.
Serve with basmati rice and BUBBL’R Twister Elix’r for a complimentary drink!
