For an extra layer of flavor, consider marinating the chicken in a mixture of soy sauce, ginger, and garlic for at least 30 minutes before coating it in the batter. Adjust the amount of chili peppers to your preference. For a milder dish, remove the seeds from the chili peppers before using. Serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles. Garnish with sesame seeds for an elegant touch.
