well it was very warm in Manitoba last night so i decided to use the deep fryer on the deck and do something a little bit different for the kids.
deep fried zucchini chips dipped in a light and fluffy batter.
onion rings dipped in the same batter
Asian sticky chicken.
I am bringing in 3 zucchinis from the garden everyday so I sliced them into disks and sprinkled them with salt and pepper.
made my batter 1/2 corn starch,1/2 cup flour pinch of salt,pepper,cayenne 1/4 cup lemon lime soda stir well.
dip the disks in the batter and add 6-8 into the deep fryer, drain on some paper towel place in the oven to keep warm.
kids gobbled them up.
I sliced up 1 large onion and put a little milk 1/4 cup, salt,pepper on them and let them sit for 30 mins.
dipped the rings in batter and fried them up.
Chicken marinade
1 inch piece fresh ginger chopped
1 glove garlic chopped
1/2 tsp ground chinese 5 spice
2 tbsp honey
3 tbsp fish sauce
3 tbsp light soy sauce
3 tbsp sweet chili thai sauce
juice 1/2 lime.
mix well
pour over chicken let sit in the fridge for 1 hour.
place in a bbq safe pan and bake in the bbq at 350 for 30 mins.
I used chicken thighs for last nights dinner.
there were NO leftovers, kids really liked the chips and rings. I know deep frying isn't healthy but it sure was a nice treat.
