  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 34 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs (beaten)
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • ⅓ cup sweet chili sauce
  • 12 tbsp Sriracha sauce (to taste)
  • 2 green onions (finely chopped)
  • 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces, about 1 inch thick.
  2. Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls: one with seasoned flour, another with beaten eggs, and the last with panko breadcrumbs.
  3. Dip each chicken piece in flour, then egg wash, and coat generously with panko breadcrumbs.
  4. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Fry the breaded chicken pieces in batches until golden brown and cooked through (about 5-7 minutes per side).
  5. While frying, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, Sriracha, soy sauce, honey, and lemon juice until smooth to create the bang bang sauce.
  6. Remove cooked chicken from the skillet and let drain on paper towels before tossing in the bang bang sauce until fully coated.
  7. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving hot.
