The most addictive appetizer ever! Tender, juicy fried chicken tossed in the “dust” which is toasted rice and Thai herbs ground up into this magical powder! If you’ve had laab before, you know how much toasted rice powder can transform a dish, now imagine it around fried chicken! Served with a classic “jeaw” dipping sauce, it’s the perfect finger food to have with a cold fizzy bevvy!
P.S. It’s gluten-free!
