Instructions
- Marinate the Chicken: In a large bowl, combine the chicken fillets with hot sauce, black pepper, salt, garlic powder, red chili powder, vinegar, and ginger powder. Mix well to ensure the chicken is evenly coated.
- Tenderize & Freeze: Transfer the coated chicken fillets to a zip-lock bag. Using a mallet, gently hammer the chicken until it is flattened. Freeze the chicken overnight to achieve the desired texture.
- Prepare the Batter: In a separate bowl, mix together all-purpose flour, corn flour, eggs, orange food color, and water. Stir well until the batter is smooth and well-combined.

- Fry the Nuggets: Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pan. Carefully fry the coated chicken nuggets until they turn light golden brown and are cooked through.
