Why this chicken works

Boneless thighs are brined for tenderness, dredged in red curry powder, all-purpose flour, and cornstarch, then fried in soybean oil until crisp. The sweet and sour sauce brings vinegar brightness, sugar, garlic, red Thai chili, and cilantro.

Great for groups that want a shareable snack and guests looking for something tangy with a little heat.
