Decided to break in the new air fryer by making a dish I love from home! Spicy crispy chicken... a few asked me for the recipe so here you go! Reach out with any questions!
Basic Ingredients:
1. Chicken thigh, 2lb boneless and skinless is the way to go.
2. Dried Sichuan Chilis, 1 cup. Calls for 3 cups in the original recipe
3. Sichuan Chili Powder, 3 Tbsp plus more to taste. You can do less or more depending on spiciness. 1 for mild 2 for medium 3 for real hot
4. Sichuan Peppercorn, 7g. You could toast these if you like, but not really aiming for any obvious numbing effect here – these are mostly to balance the heat of the chilis.
5. MSG ½ tsp. Didn’t add, but added soy sauce and extra salt to up the umami flavor
6. Chicken Bouillon Powder, 1/8 tsp
7. Sugar, ½ tsp plus more to taste. If you taste and realize it’s too spicy add more sugar to reduce spiciness
8. Salt, ¼ tsp.
9. Garlic, 7 cloves. Crushed and roughly sliced. I also threw in a few halves cloves as well because I love garlic
10. Ginger, ~2 inches. Roughly sliced.
11. Cilantro, ~1.5 cups chopped; Green Onion, ~2 cups chopped. Cut the green part of the green onion into 2 inch long sections (ditto with the cilantro) and mince the white part. Note that cilantro’s optional here. Most recipes will only use green onion in the dish and might potentially garnish with cilantro.
12. White Sesame Seeds For garnish.
13. Light Soy Sauce, ~3 Tablespoons.
14. Shaoxing rice, ~3 tablespoons. A.k.a rice cooking wine, huangjiu, or Shaoxing rice wine.
15. One Egg.
16. Cornstarch, ~1/2 cup. For our chicken, we used a batter of one egg and a half cup cornstarch.
Process:
1. Cut your chicken up into 2cm pieces, then marinate for at least three hours.
2. Drain the marinade from the chicken, and dredge. Make sure you got most of the marinade out of the chicken. Dredge with that combination of one egg and a half cup of cornstarch.
3. Air-fry the chicken until crispy and golden brown, about 30 minutes at 380 degrees. Crispiness will depend on the size of your air fryer.. 2 lb of chicken will be a lot for most air fryers and that’s ok. Shake every 5 min. Around 25 min pick out the done pieces of chicken. by @mattyochum

February 17, 2021 will always go down as one of the best days of my life. Delany and I are blessed to have the opportunity to welcome a new member to our family, Elias John Yochum, coming in at 9lb 2oz. Eli and Delany are completely healthy and Delany ROCKED labor and delivery. I’ve never been so impressed with someone as I have been with Delany the last 2 days. She’s amazing. Throughout this process our community has showered us with love and prayer and for that I am forever grateful. Eli, I’m ecstatic to be your dad and I already love you with everything that I am. by @mattyochum

Indie Chefs Week you guys are amazing! Thank you to all the chefs and staff involved for putting together such a phenomenal night. Each dish exceeded my expectations, but maybe my favorite part of the night was being sat next to Wik and Robert. Discussing Houston food, restaurants, and life with foodies like yourselves was a blast for Delany and I. Nights like last night are the reason I live to eat!
Follow @tamingofthespoon for all things food!! Follow @indiechefsweek to see when one of the single greatest culinary experiences will be in a city close to you!
FINALLY, follow my girlfriend @delanyr.kelly because she’s the greatest at surprises and loves me well.
