- 2 lbs boneless chicken
- 1⁄2 cup mochiko sweet rice flour (glutinous rice flour, available in Asian markets)

directions
- Bone the chicken if not already done and cut into plump finger-size nuggets and set aside.

- Deep-fry at 350 degrees, keeping the pieces from sticking together. Drain the nuggets of excess oil.

When making this I did cut the amount of chicken in half (2 large, 8-ounce chicken breasts) but kept the rest of the ingredients the same, just wanting to be sure I had enough to coat all the meat! Worked out great, & we had a very tasty chicken along with a brown-rice-&-peas combo! I look forward to making this another time as finger food with a sweet/sour dip! Thanks for sharing this great recipe! [Tagged & made in Please Review My Recipe]
