Blazing Firebird Chicken
Blazing Firebird Chicken brings a bold, peppery kick with habanero heat balanced by tangy Sriracha and a whisper of garlic. Lightly dusted in rice flour, the chicken sears to a crisp bronze exterior while staying juicy inside. Serve this for a lively weeknight Dinner or as a game-day bite when you want a spicy centerpiece.

Pour the habanero mixture over the chicken strips, using tongs to ensure each strip is evenly coated with no dry spots. Cover the plate tightly with plastic wrap; marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 12 hours.
