How to Make Chicken Stir-fry?

So, before we begin let me tell you What is Chicken Stir Fry?

Basically, Stir Fry means "Deep Frying" something on very high heat until it cooks completely. And, since it requires constant stirring, therefore, this recipe is called "Stir Fry".

How to Cook Crispy Chicken?

  • Coat Chicken in Cornstarch:Coating Chicken in Cornstarch ensures even browning and crispy golden brown edges.
  • Oil should be Hot: Make Sure the Oil is smoking hot.
  • Work in batches. Do Not Crowd the Pan. The chicken is going to leave out its juices and when you have too many chicken cubes in a pan, they don't brown evenly.
  • Stir Constantly: Once you've added your chicken into the pan, make sure you stir constantly, or else your chicken won't brown evenly.
