Step 1

In a small bowl, mix 1 tbsp cornstarch and ½ cup water until well combined. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, add your diced chicken thighs followed by cornstarch. Mix until each piece is coated in cornstarch. Set aside.

Step 3

Then in a large pan or wok set over medium high heat, add cooking oil. Carefully add in your chicken and let this fry until crispy golden brown on all sides, about 6-8 minutes. Remove chicken from pan and transfer to a plate. (For Air Fryer instructions, see Notes section below)

Step 4

In the same pan or wok set over medium heat, add ginger, garlic, and red chili. Fry for 30 seconds.
