Preparation & Coating

Pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Dip each piece into beaten egg, then press into Oriental Express Panko, ensuring they are fully coated for maximum crunch.

Frying Methods

  • Classic Method: Heat oil to 175–185°C and fry in small batches for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.

  • Air Fryer: Preheat to 200°C and cook for 10–14 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.

Prepare the Bang Bang Sauce

In a bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, Sriracha, honey, and optionally a splash of lime juice or vinegar. Mix well until the sauce is smooth, creamy, and spicy.

Combine & Serve

Transfer the hot, crispy chicken to a large bowl. Drizzle with the sauce and toss gently to coat every piece evenly.

Serve immediately, garnishing with sliced green onions, sesame seeds, and lime wedges for a fresh, aromatic finish.
