Crispy Salty Chicken

I think this is rather similar to the Taiwanese Fried Crispy Chicken. This version is not sweet as Taiwanese version. Very fragrant and tasty cos' of the salt and spices.  You can make the seasoning yourself or substitute it with the Taiwanese pepper salt [I bought a bottle from Taiwan for RM3.00].
Should be a nice finger food that is welcome by many children.

  5. Hi Jozelyn, Veronica, Joyce and Phong Hong, most fried chicken are quite oily but this one uses skinless chicken breast. Much healthier.
