This Popcorn chicken battle was too close to call, both versions are absolutely delicious but for different reasons. Two killer chicken recipes coming at you.
American popcorn chicken:
1 lb chicken breast
enough buttermilk to submerge the chicken (about 1 1/2 cups)
4 tbsp all-purpose flour
4 tbsp corn or rice starch
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp Lawry's seasoning
2 tsp smoked paprika
2 tsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp mustard powder
1/2 tsp black pepper
2 egg whites
2 cups Panko
10 sprigs stripped thyme
Taiwanese popcorn chicken:
1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp Shaoxing wine (substitute with dry sherry cooking wine or mirin)
1 thumb-sized piece of ginger
1 1/2 tbsp garlic
1 tsp white pepper
1 1/2 cups THICK sweet potato flour
25-30 leaves of fresh basil
Seasoning mix for after frying
1 tsp white pepper
1 tsp salt
1 tsp five-spice powder

@doodoobrown7551 2 года назад

Now, I know I don't have to tell you because I know you know. But for any viewers wondering what buttermilk actually does to chicken, it's the acids in it, which are very mild. It breaks down the meat and tenderizes it, instead of toughening it up like stronger acids would.

@nirglazer5962 2 года назад

love the videos, and i personally like the 'american style' popcorn chicken more. i recommend adding some mesquite rub from grill mates (my favorite seasoning honestly, works great on fries too) to the flour batter. just adds some of that barbequey flavor to the chicken itself. also just something I noticed, maybe because you also said it, (congrats on getting a second camera!) but all the cuts were a bit distracting. Not saying the cuts of talking and stuff that usually occurs, i mean the zoom into the face, and then the hands, and then the face, and hands, etc. just a bit distracting. Not saying you gotta lean down so that we see everything like you used to do, but if possible to see more of the food you're doing while you're on 'face/body' cam, so that you don't need to jump to the food all the time, and only when doing close up shots, that would personally be preferred (i just feel like i couldn't focus with all the perspective changes). sorry for a bit of a rant, i hope you take this as constructive critisism and not hating, because i love your channel. keep it up! (and keep giving that fridge a beating)
