Steps

Translated from the Korean original. Amounts are as in the original recipe.

Slice the chicken breast, season it lightly with salt and black pepper, and rub it with chopped ginger to remove any odor.
Coat the seasoned chicken breast with glutinous rice flour.
Mix the cornstarch, cooking oil, and water to make a batter.
Coat step 2 evenly with the batter and fry in 170°C oil.
Boil the vinegar and yuja syrup, adjust the seasoning with soy sauce, and stir in a starch slurry to adjust the thickness.
Toss the fried guobaorou in the sauce.

💡 TipThe yuja syrup replaces sugar, and the fresh aroma of yuja makes up for the missing sweetness.
