Instructions
- 1 Combine habanero peppers, garlic, and salt in a mortar and pestle; mash into a fine paste. Whisk in Sriracha and egg to combine; set aside.
- 2 Remove tenderloins from breasts; slice each remaining breast in half lengthwise, cutting at a 45-degree angle to create two relatively equal strips.
- 3 Place all 6 chicken strips on a plate; generously dust all sides with rice flour until completely covered.
- 4 Pour habanero mixture over chicken strips using tongs to make sure each chicken strip is evenly coated and that there are no dry spots. Wrap the plate in plastic wrap; marinate in the refrigerator 2 to 12 hours.
- 5 Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook until well browned and no longer pink in centers, about 3 minutes per side. Serve immediately.
