Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup Japanese panko breadcrumbs
  • 500 grams chicken fillets (cut into strips)

For the salted egg dip:

  • 3 teaspoons salted egg powder or mashed salted duck egg yolks
  • 1 cup Lady’s Choice Real Mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • salt, to taste
  • black pepper, to taste

Steps

  1. Prepare the Breading Stations In a small bowl, season the flour with salt and black pepper; set aside. In another bowl, beat the eggs until fully combined and slightly frothy, about 30 seconds. Place the panko breadcrumbs in a third bowl.

  2. Bread the Chicken Dip each chicken strip into the seasoned flour, shaking off excess. Next, coat it in the beaten eggs. Finally, roll it in the breadcrumbs and press gently so the crumbs adhere well. Place the breaded chicken strips on a clean plate or wire rack. Repeat with the remaining strips. Tip: Use one hand for dry ingredients and one hand for wet ingredients to prevent clumping.

  3. Fry Chicken Until Golden Heat oil in a deep pan or heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Deep-fry the chicken strips for 6 to 8 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a paper towel-lined tray or wire rack to drain excess oil. Fry in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan and to maintain oil temperature. Tip: Overcrowding the pan results in soggy coating instead of crisp, crunchy fingers.

  4. Make the Salted Egg Dip In a bowl, combine salted egg powder or mashed salted duck egg yolks, Lady’s Choice Real Mayonnaise, and sour cream. Mix until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve the fried chicken fingers warm with the salted egg dip on the side. Tip: Mash salted egg yolks thoroughly before mixing to avoid lumps and ensure a smooth, velvety dip.
