Sweet Spicy Chicken (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

01 - 1/3 cup cornstarch.
02 - 1 pound of chicken thighs, diced into 1-inch pieces.
03 - Frying oil.
04 - 1 tablespoon minced ginger.
05 - 6 garlic cloves, finely chopped.
06 - 1 teaspoon red chili flakes.
07 - Optional: 3 dried red chilies.
08 - 6 spoons of soy sauce.
09 - 6 tablespoons of rice vinegar.
10 - Half a cup of water.
11 - 1 teaspoon hot sauce.
12 - 1 tablespoon of cornstarch.
13 - 4 tablespoons of brown sugar.

# Instructions:

01 - Coat chicken chunks completely with cornstarch in a big bowl.
02 - Mix vinegar, hot sauce, soy sauce, water, sugar, and cornstarch in a bowl until smooth.
03 - Add oil to a big skillet, fry chicken until golden and crunchy. Take chicken out, but save one spoon of the oil.
04 - Put garlic, ginger, and chili flakes into the leftover oil and cook on a low flame for 30 seconds, stirring till it's super fragrant.
05 - Drop the chicken back in the pan, pour in the sauce, and stir until it thickens—usually less than a minute. Eat it up with rice.

# Notes:

01 - You can turn the heat up or down depending on how spicy you want it.
02 - Keep an eye on the garlic and ginger so they don’t burn while cooking.
03 - Tastes best when eaten right away.
