What is popcorn chickens made of?

Popcorn chicken is typically made with chicken breast or tenderloins that are cut into bite-sized pieces. These pieces are then breaded with a cornstarch-based batter and deep-fried until golden brown and crispy.

The breading can vary, but often includes:

* Cornstarch: Provides a light, airy texture.

* Flour: Adds structural support and helps the breading adhere.

* Seasonings: Salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, etc. can be added for flavor.

Some recipes also call for eggs to help the breading stick to the chicken.

Once fried, popcorn chicken is usually served hot and fresh, often with dipping sauces like honey mustard, BBQ sauce, or ranch dressing.
