Steps

  1. Trim the cartilage from the boneless chicken thighs, then cut into medium pieces (not too big, not too small).
  2. Mix the chicken with the marinade (salty soy sauce, white pepper, minced garlic, ginger, sugar, salt); stir well and refrigerate overnight (portion into 500 g packs and freeze if prepping in bulk).
  3. For the dry coating, combine the tapioca starch, a little all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder; mix well.
  4. Add water to part of the flour mix gradually, stirring, until it forms small crumbly clumps — not too wet or damp.
  5. For the sauce, toast the dried red chilies briefly over medium heat until fragrant and lightly smoking (don't let them burn).
  6. Add a little oil, then add the sliced ginger, scallion, and smashed garlic; sauté until fragrant and infused with the toasted chilies.
  7. Add the salty soy sauce, dark soy sauce, water, white pepper, white vinegar, and sugar; stir to combine.
  8. Simmer the sauce over low-medium heat for about 30 minutes until well infused, then adjust the seasoning to taste.
  9. Thicken the sauce with the tapioca slurry (2 tsp tapioca starch + 2 tbsp water), stirring to the consistency you like.
  10. Make a wet batter from water and tapioca starch; dip the marinated chicken into the wet batter, then toss it in the dry flour mix in a covered container until evenly coated and crumbly.
  11. Deep-fry the chicken twice: first in hot oil until half-cooked (still pale, not yet crispy), then fry a second time until darker and maximally crispy.
  12. While still hot, pour the thickened sauce over the fried chicken and toss briefly to coat evenly while it's still hot.
  13. Serve over rice topped with a sunny-side-up egg and cashew nuts.
