Ingredients

  1. 1 (12 ounce) jar red raspberry preserves
  2. 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  3. 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  4. 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  5. 1 teaspoon onion powder
  6. ¾ cup cornstarch
  7. 3 large eggs
  8. ½ teaspoon salt
  9. 1 pound boneless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
  10. vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Make the sauce by mixing raspberry preserves, Worcestershire sauce, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, and onion powder together in a bowl.
  2. Place cornstarch in a shallow bowl. Beat eggs with salt in another bowl. Dip chicken in cornstarch, then into the beaten eggs. Dip in cornstarch again.
  3. Fill a pan with 1 1/2 inches of oil and heat over medium heat. Fry chicken in the pan until light golden brown and centers are no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Place cooked chicken aside, clean out the pan, and add 1/4 cup oil.
  4. Heat oil over medium heat until shimmering. Add chicken and stir gently to coat with oil. Pour in sauce and coat well, stirring gently.
  5. We have determined the nutritional value of oil for frying based on a retention value of 10% after cooking. Amount will vary depending on cooking time and temperature, ingredient density, and specific type of oil used.
