Black Pepper Chicken step by step

Cut the Chicken Breast in any shape you like (Stripes/Diced/randomly).
Prepare a Bowl/Container, mix all the *Popcorn Chicken Seasoning* with spoon or by hand..
Take 3-5 tbsp of the Popcorn Chicken Seasoning into another bowl/containter and add 10-20 tbsp of sparkling water. Consistency must be medium, not runny and not thick..
Prepare the pot / pan for deep frying in medium heat (160C).
Give the chicken a nice coating: Flour - Liquid - Flour - Liquid - Flour (2 times coating).
Test with a drop of liquid seasoning on the hot oil, if it suddenly bubbling then it’s good to go.
Wait until the edges turn into a nice brown color then flip it over.
After the cooking is done, rest them on the paper towel so it absorbs the oil..
TIPS 1 : Do it tidy and it is not going to give crispy curls. Just do it quick, i like to just throw it here and there and it’s going to give that crispy texture..
TIPS 2 : Don’t squeeze the Chicken on the seasoning too hard. Best to shake it if you have container.
Sauce : minced the garlic, cut the red pepper, onion, and chili into your desired cutting.
Heat the pan in medium heat with 1-2 tbsp of olive oil.
Put the minced garlic into a pan until it turns into slightly a nice golden color then add chili, onion, and red pepper.
