How to make Dragon Chicken
Marinate the Chicken
In a bowl, mix the chicken pieces with cornflour, all-purpose flour, egg, ginger-garlic paste, salt, and pepper. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
Fry the Chicken
Heat oil in a pan or deep fryer. Fry the marinated chicken in batches until golden and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Prepare the Sauce
In another pan, heat oil. Add sliced onions, bell peppers, and green chilies. Sauté until the vegetables are slightly tender.
Add ginger-garlic paste and stir for a minute. Then add soy sauce, chili sauce, tomato ketchup, vinegar, and sugar. Mix well.
Combine
Add the fried chicken to the sauce and toss to coat evenly. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve
Garnish with chopped spring onions and serve hot with fried rice or noodles.
