Directions
Start by cutting chicken breasts into bite-sized cubes. Season them with salt and pepper.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, beaten eggs, and water. Mix until it forms a smooth batter.
Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
Dip the chicken cubes into the batter and ensure that each piece is fully coated.
Carefully place the coated chicken cubes into the hot oil.
Fry the chicken balls until they become golden brown and crispy. This usually takes about 5-7 minutes. Make sure to turn them halfway through for even cooking.
After frying, transfer the chicken balls to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
To prepare the sauce, combine the sugar, ketchup, vinegar, soy sauce, and minced garlic in a saucepan. Simmer over medium heat until the sauce thickens.
Toss the chicken balls in the sauce until they're all well coated.
Serve your Chinese Chicken Balls hot. They taste great paired with steamed rice or noodles.
