Ingredients: 
1 lb. skinless, boneless chicken thigh, cut in bite sizes

mixture
2 cloves garlic, crushed 
1 egg
1/2 tsp. sugar 
1/2 Tbs. soy sauce
1 Tbs. sesame oil
1/2 tsp. chicken powder bouillon
1/4 tsp. salt
3 Tbs. corn starch
1 Tbs. Sriracha or tabasco

Directions: 
Whisk the mixture and transfer to a ziploc bag. Place the cut chicken into the bag and rub the mixture well. Seal it and let it sit for 30 minutes in refrigerator.

Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a heavy-bottomed pot about 350F. 
Fry the chicken in the hot oil until lightly golden about 4 minutes. Turn the chicken with chop sticks or tongs a couple of times and adjust the heat as needed to maintain the oil temperature.

Remove chicken from oil and place on paper towels to drip dry a few minutes.
Serve garnished with sliced lemon.
