Popcorn Chicken

Description
The crispy alternative to the original popcorn, this white-hot, bite-sized appetizer/side dish is made from real chicken and packed with herbs and spices, as it then maintains a savory taste with the poultry.

Ingredients

 * 3-4 cups vegetable oil
 * 1 egg, lightly beaten
 * 1 cup white flour
 * 2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
 * 1 teaspoon salt
 * 3 tablespoons black pepper
 * 2 teaspoons garlic powder
 * 2 boneless chicken breasts

Directions

 * 1) Cut the chicken breasts into small chunks with the chef's knife or the steak knife.
 * 2) Sift the flour and mix up the salt, cajun seasoning, black pepper, and garlic powder.  Dip the chicken in the egg then generously coat in the flour mixture.
 * 3) Heat the oil in a pan. Drop a few drops of batter into the oil and if it sizzles and fries it is ready.
 * 4) Add chicken to the oil in small batches and turn over to make sure both sides are cooked evenly.
 * 5) Remove and drain on kitchen paper when golden. Leave to drain a moment or two so the chicken is crunchy.
 * 6) Sprinkle salt to taste. Serve warm and plain or with other appetizers or side dishes.
