This batter works on onion rings, fish, and more. For the chicken bites, try adding a pinch of powdered ginger to the batter. It tastes so good!

Chicken Bites Tempura Style with fried rice and sweet and sour sauce.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

Chicken tempura is a classic take-out dish but is easy to make at home. The thick tempura crust is crunchy and holds in tender and juicy chicken. We served these chicken bites with sweet and sour sauce and fried rice for a delicious take-out at-home meal. When prepping, the chicken pieces should be on the smaller side to cook uniformly in the oil.

How To Make chicken bites tempura style

Step 1

Take a large mixing bowl and add all dry ingredients.

Step 2

Then add the water. Mix until thick enough to coat the mixing utensil.
Step 3

I use a deep fryer or a frying pan with 1 to 2 inches of canola oil. Heat oil to 350 degrees.
Step 4

Cut chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Coat cubes of chicken in tempura batter.
Step 5

Then take a fork, pick up chunks, and place 1 at a time into the fryer. Place in fryer until all have a nice golden brown appearance and are cooked through.
