Recipe: Delicious Firecracker Chicken Delicious, fresh and tasty.

Firecracker Chicken. Firecracker chicken is lightly fried on the stovetop and then baked with a simple spicy sauce, which is typically made with a mix of buffalo sauce, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar. (My favorite buffalo sauce? In a large bowl, season chicken with salt and pepper, then add cornstarch and toss until fully coated. In a medium bowl, whisk eggs.

Reheating it in the microwave can make the chicken rubbery and overcooked.

Simple, quick, utterly delicious and perfect for busy nights!

If you love Wagamama Firecracker Chicken you're going to love this recipe!

This is my copycat version of that tasty stir fry - tender chicken, crunchy veggies and few HOT chillies in a lip-smackingly good sweet and spicy sauce.

I love to serve this the Wagamama way with a mound of rice in the middle, topped of with a good sprinkling of shichimi.
