Ingredients

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • For the dipping sauce:

  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the chicken cubes, flour, garlic powder, ginger, coriander, cayenne, turmeric, cumin, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat the chicken evenly.
