Ingredients
- 100g self-raising flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- water
- 2 chicken breasts, diced
- cooking oil
Method
- Put the self-raising flour into a bowl and add a tsp of baking powder
- Mix with cold water – add a little bit at a time, you want to get a smooth double cream consistency – not too runny
- Cut up two chicken breast into chunks (I find bite size chunks to be the best)
- Dip the chicken in flour and then dip in the batter
- Heat up some oil in a pan, wok or deep fat fryer – you want the balls to be submerged in the oil
- Add the coated chicken to the hot oil, a few at a time
- You want them to go a nice golden brown colour – will take about 4-6 minutes
- Take out and blot on kitchen roll ( I used an old tea towel – it gets rid of the grease and keeps the chicken balls crispy)
- You can serve these immediately or cool them down and freeze
Top Tip
Serve with rice, beer batter chips and McDonnell’s Curry Sauce for a 4-in-1, just like from home
