Taiwanese Popcorn Chicken With Fried Basil Recipe - NYT Cooking

This spiced fried chicken is a staple in the night markets of Taiwan. You can order the chicken in cutlet form or small bites like these, which are served in paper bags with wooden skewers. This recipe uses a few spices that cannot be skipped: five-spice powder and white pepper. The Sichuan peppercorns are a bonus, adding a little numbing tingle. If you can’t find Sichuan peppercorns, use black peppercorns instead. You won’t get the same tingly feeling, but the chicken will be just as good…

3 · This flavorful fried chicken is made with boneless thigh meat for extra juiciness. You can certainly use boneless breast meat if you want but expect it to be a little less juicy. This recipe does require a few specialty ingredients, most of them found at an Asian grocery store or a well-stocked grocery store. If you can't find them, I've made notes above this recipe on substitutions.
