PEPSI CHICKEN & RICE

about 8-9 years ago, my daughter and I overheard a fireman telling the butcher about this recipe, sounded so easy and quick, we promptly made it and it's been a favorite since. HOWEVER, my hubby doesn't care for the rice so I always make him some plain rice seperate. The best part about this recipe is you can increase or decrease it depending on your needs.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: Use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs for best results.
  • Tenderize the chicken: To make the chicken extra tender, you can marinate it in a mixture of yogurt, lemon juice, and spices for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Use a light hand with the cornstarch: Too much cornstarch will make the chicken tough, so be sure to measure it carefully.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When frying the chicken, don't overcrowd the pan or the chicken will steam instead of fry. Cook the chicken in batches if necessary.
  • Serve immediately: Pepsi chicken is best served immediately after it is cooked, while it is still hot and crispy.
