Directions

1) Preheat oil to 375 degrees.

Sauce:

1) Combine sauce ingredients in a small pan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer about 15 minutes.

Chicken:

1) In a bowl combine flour, Panko bread crumbs, and seasonings. Set aside. In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, 3 tbsp. water and 1 1/2 tbsp. oil.

2) Working with half the flour mixture at a time dip each piece of chicken in the egg mixture and then the flour. Dip it into the egg a second time and then the flour again to double coat it. Gently press the flour into the chicken. Shake off any excess. Place on a wire rack and continue until all chicken is coated.

3) Fry chicken in small batches until crispy and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes. Drain on paper towels.

4) Place cooked chicken in a large bowl, pour warm sauce over and toss well to coat.

5) Top with green onions if desired and serve immediately.
