Chili Chicken- Haka Style image

I ordered Chili Chicken from a local restaurant and then tried to re-create it a week later. This was the result :) You can use boneless chicken breasts but you can also use chicken thighs/legs if you remove the bones first. Use corn flour to marinade the meat (not cornmeal) or regular flour will do too.
