Steps:
- In a bowl whisk together chipotle peppers, buttermilk, egg, cornstarch, salt and pepper.
- Cut the chicken breasts into 1 inch pieces. Place the chicken in the batter and let it sit for at least a couple hours in the fridge or overnight.
- Pour some panko breadcrumbs in a shallow plate.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet.
- Coat each piece of chicken with breadcrumbs, add more breadcrumbs as needed and fry on both sides for 3 to 5 minutes until chicken is cooked through. Place on paper napkins to soak up some of the oil. Repeat with all chicken pieces. Only add a few pieces of chicken to the skillet at a time so as not to over crowd, so the chicken turns out crispy.

- Serve with your choice of dip.

- Cook the popcorn chicken until it is golden brown: This will ensure that the chicken is cooked through and crispy.
- Serve the popcorn chicken with your favorite dipping sauce: Some popular options include ranch dressing, honey mustard, and barbecue sauce.
