2. put these chicken pieces in the marinade for half an hour or more in your fridge
3. coat the chicken pieces in flour, then egg, then sweet potato flour, leave them until the flour surface becomes wet (making sure it’s stuck on well)
4. into hot oil add the pieces of coated chicken, fry until golden brown
5. take the chicken out, get the oil very hot and put the chicken pieces back in for about 10 seconds only.
6. put the pieces on a kitchen towel and chop the chicken into ‘fingers’
7. serve either with a bowl of rice and salad  “Gee Pie Fan” 雞排飯or on a bed of lettuce “Da Gee Pie” 大雞排, enjoy! Both ways are nice with our dip (above) a kind of Tartare sauce.
