Crispy Fried Chinese Chicken - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 None Chinese poached chicken, cut into quarters
3/4 cup flour
1 tsp Chinese five-spice powder
1 tbsp sea salt
None None Peanut oil, for deep-frying
None None Lemon wedges, to serve

Preparation

Pat chicken pieces dry with paper towels. Dust with flour, shaking off any excess. Set aside. Roast five-spice powder and salt in a small skillet on medium heat for 2 mins, until fragrant. Remove and set aside.
Heat oil in a wok or deep-fryer to 350\u00b0F or until a cube of bread sizzles on contact. Carefully lower half the chicken pieces into oil and fry, turning once or twice, for 3-5 mins, until crisp and golden. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Cut into pieces and arrange on a platter. Serve with five-spice salt and lemon wedges.
