These crispy beer-battered chicken bites are a delightful treat, perfect for a quick snack or a fun dinner.
Preheat the oil in a deep fryer or a large skillet to 375°F (190°C).
Use a thermometer to ensure the oil reaches the correct temperature for optimal frying.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, salt, sugar, baking powder, and beer until smooth.
Make sure the batter is lump-free for an even coating.
Gradually add the flour to the wet mixture, whisking until a smooth batter forms.
Add the flour in small amounts to avoid clumping.
Pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels to ensure the batter adheres well.
Drying the chicken thoroughly helps the batter stick better.
Dip each piece of chicken into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated.
Use tongs to handle the chicken to keep your hands clean.
Carefully place the battered chicken into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 4 minutes.
Fry in small batches to maintain the oil temperature.
Remove the chicken from the oil and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
Place the fried chicken on a wire rack for extra crispiness.
Serve the chicken bites warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
Garnish with fresh herbs for a touch of color and flavor.
