Equipment
- Mixing bowl
- plastic bag
Ingredients
- 1 Egg
- 1 Tablespoon Garlic ginger paste
- 2 Tablespoons Soy sauce

- 2 Tablespoons Cornstarch
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine the egg, garlic ginger paste, soy sauce, chili powder and cornstarch.1 Egg, 1 Tablespoon Garlic ginger paste, 2 Tablespoons Soy sauce, 1 teaspoon Chili powder, 2 Tablespoons Cornstarch
- Mix the marinade well until no clumps of cornstarch remain, and the egg is evenly mixed.
- Immerse chicken or chosen protein in the marinade, stir until evenly coated, then pour both chicken and marinade into a bag and place in the refrigerator.
- Let rest at least one hour before use. I recommend shallow-frying this amazing chicken!
Notes
- Don't worry if you don't have garlic ginger paste already! If you have garlic bulbs and a frozen or fresh ginger root, you have everything you need. Finely grate ginger and garlic (1 part ginger to 2 parts garlic), mix them with a little oil, and you've got fresh, flavorful garlic ginger paste ready to go!
- If you've having trouble getting the cornstarch not to clump, mix it with a tiny bit of water first before adding it in. Not too much, or it'll make the marinade too thin.
- While this marinade is made for chicken, it's delicious with other proteins! Try it with tofu, thin cut pork or beef, or even shrimp or prawns!
