Momo tips:
1. The purpose of adding low-gluten flour when marinating is to lock in moisture.
2. The key to the tenderness of the chicken on the outside! Keep it in the refrigerator and marinate for at least 12 hours, preferably overnight. This step is to let the chicken taste and absorb enough water.
3. The oil temperature needs to be heated to 160-180 degrees before adding the chicken to fry. After the chicken is put in, adjust the fire power to medium-high fry.
4. The second re-fry is to make the chicken shell more crispy.
