Blazing Firebird Chicken
  1. 1

    In a mortar and pestle, combine the habanero peppers, garlic, and salt; grind into a smooth paste. Whisk in the Sriracha and the egg until blended; set aside.

  2. 2

    Remove the tenderloins from the breasts; slice each remaining breast in half lengthwise at a 45-degree angle to make two fairly equal strips.

  3. 3

    Arrange all 6 chicken strips on a plate; liberally coat all sides with rice flour until fully covered.

  4. 4

    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.

  5. 5

    Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken; cook until deeply browned and no longer pink in the centers, about 3 minutes per side. Serve right away.
