Note

For best results, ensure the oil is hot enough before adding the chicken to achieve a crisp crust.

If using chicken breasts, reduce cooking time slightly to prevent drying out.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in an oven or air fryer to restore crispiness.

Adjust the amount of curry powder and chili to suit your preferred level of spice and flavor intensity.

Serve with steamed rice, salad, or dipping sauces for a complete meal.
