2. Dust with arrowroot 1 tbsp a time (up to 4 tbsp). Try to coat them evenly. Some slices might stick to each other and that’s totally normal. Store in the fridge while you are waiting for the wok to get hot.
3. In the meantime, pre-heat a large wok or Dutch oven over medium-heat until it feels hot to your palm when placing it near the surface about 2-3 inches away. Add 3 tbsp avocado oil.
4. Fry the chicken in 2 separate batches over medium-high to high heat. Try your best to separate each slice. Some might stick and that’s totally normal. Fry the first side (without flipping it) for about 3 minutes and the flip side about 2 minutes. Set the first batch aside and continue to fry the second batch. Add 1 more tablespoon oil if needed. The color should be golden brown and crispy on the edges.

1. Mix the sliced chicken with 1 tablespoon of oil, until the pieces are evenly coated. Dredge all of the chicken in the cornstarch, shaking off the excess until the chicken is just lightly coated.
2. Heat ⅓ cup oil in a wok over high heat. At this point, if the chicken has absorbed the cornstarch and gets moist again, dredge the pieces again before frying. Just before the oil starts to smoke, spread the chicken pieces evenly in the wok, and fry for 1 minute, or until browned and crispy.
3. Turn the chicken, and let the other side fry for another 30 seconds or until browned and crispy. Transfer to a sheet pan or plate lined with paper towels. The chicken should be fried on all sides with a crusty coating.
4. Drain the oil from the wok, leaving 1 tablespoon behind, and set over medium high heat. Add the ginger fry for 20 seconds, until fragrant.
