• For the chicken, combine the chicken, red chili powder, white pepper, soy sauce, vinegar, ketchup, garlic-ginger paste and salt in a bowl and mix well. Let stand 10 to 15 minutes. Add the cornstarch and egg and mix well. Heat oil in a large skillet or deep-fryer to 325 to 350 degrees F. Fry the chicken until golden brown.
• For the vegetables and sauce, heat the oil in a skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the red onions, green onions, ginger, garlic, chiles and bell pepper. Saute for a few seconds. Add the broth and bring to a boil. Add the sugar, red chili powder, salt, white pepper, soy sauce and ketchup and mix well. Add the fried chicken. Cook, stirring, until chicken is coated with the sauce.
• Combine the cornstarch with 1/2 cup water and mix well. Add to the sauce, stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Serve hot, garnished with green onion tops.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix together the honey, sweet chili sauce and soy sauce. Set aside a small dish of the marinade for basting. Place chicken drumsticks into the bowl. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.
• Lightly oil the grill grate. Arrange drumsticks on the grill. Cook for 10 minutes per side, or until juices run clear. Baste frequently with the reserved sauce during the last 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Add vegetable oil to a depth of 1-2 inches in a pot; heat on medium-high heat.
• Cut chicken breast fillets into bite-sized pieces.
• Combine chicken, chili powder, and five tbsp of ginger-garlic paste in a bowl.
• Mix well while lightly covering mixture with the 1/2 cup of flour; chicken pieces should be fully covered with flour. Set aside.
• Add about 1/4 cup of vegetable oil to the wok and heat on medium-high.
• Add sliced onion, sliced peppers, and two tbsp of ginger-garlic paste to wok; stir occasionally ensuring the vegetables are coated in oil.
• By now the oil in the pot should be heated (carefully test with a single drop of water). Gently submerge the chicken pieces, covering the bottom of the pot. Once bubbling settles down remove the pieces onto a plate with paper towels. Repeat until all the chicken is cooked. Be sure not to overcook the the chicken. Pat the remaining oil from the chicken with a paper towel.
• The vegetables in the wok should be softened. Add the chicken, a few shots of soy sauce, sweet chili sauce, and salt. Mix well for a minute or two.
• Serve with rice and naan and top with cilantro. Yumm!
