Prepare the chicken feet
Chicken feet are washed clean with diluted salt, removing all the sharp nails.
Put a pot of water on the stove, wait for it to boil, then add the chicken feet and boil for about 10 minutes, then take them out and place them immediately in a bowl of ice water.
Use the tip of a knife to make slits along each toe from the inside. Next, use your thumb and index finger to separate the skin from the ankle down to the toe, exposing the joints and pulling them outwards.
Tip:
- You can boil the chicken feet with a bit of salt and white wine to effectively remove the odor.
- Initially, the chicken feet should be boiled over high heat; when the water boils again, reduce the heat.
- You can use a toothpick to test the chicken feet; if it no longer has a pink color, you can take them out.

Dipping in batter
Create a batter mixture with 100g of crispy flour and 70ml of water, stirring well until the flour dissolves evenly.
Gradually dip the chicken feet into a bowl of dry crispy flour, then dip through a layer of the previously prepared batter mixture.Tip:
- Do not add too much water to the batter mixture; you can gradually add water while stirring until a thick mixture is formed.
- Dip just enough flour; do not dip too thickly, as it can be overwhelming to eat.

Prepare the chicken feet
Clean the chicken feet with diluted salt, cutting off all the sharp nails.
Place a pot of water on the stove, wait for it to boil, then add the chicken feet and boil for about 10 minutes, then take them out and immediately place them in a bowl of cold ice water.
Use the tip of a knife to cut along each toe of the chicken feet from the inside. Next, use your thumb and index finger to separate the skin from the ankle down to the toe, exposing the bone joints and breaking them outwards.

Prepare other ingredients
Peel the garlic and finely chop it. Clean and finely chop the lemongrass.
Peel the ginger, slice it, and then finely chop it.Squeeze the lemon to extract the juice, removing all the seeds.
Tip: You can try using a spoon to scrape off the ginger skin; the skin will come off easily instead of using a knife!

Make the sauce
Put 4 tablespoons of sugar, a little ground pepper, 1/2 tablespoon of seasoning powder, 3 tablespoons of fish sauce into a bowl, add 1 tablespoon of chili sauce, a little lemon juice, and mix the mixture well with a spoon.
Tip:
You can add 1 tablespoon of Coca-Cola to the sauce mixture, which helps make the chicken feet softer and more flavorful.
You can add chili if you like!
-
Fry the chicken feet
Put the boneless chicken feet into a plastic bag with the frying flour, shake to coat the chicken feet evenly with the flour.
Heat oil in a pan, wait until hot, then add the floured chicken feet and fry briefly. When the chicken feet turn light yellow, they can be removed and drained.
Chop garlic, onion, and ginger and add them to the pan, sauté until fragrant. Add the previously prepared sauce mixture, stir until it boils. Add all the chicken feet and mix well until the sauce is absorbed into the chicken feet.Tip:
- When frying the chicken feet with the sauce, keep the heat medium to help the chicken feet absorb the sauce evenly without the liquid evaporating too quickly.
- The sauce thickens quickly, so you should stir the chicken feet regularly with chopsticks to help them absorb the seasoning better.

Final Product
The chicken feet are pre-fried with crispy flour, enhancing their chewy and crunchy texture, evenly soaked in a sweet and sour, salty sauce. You can enjoy them with fresh vegetables and a bit of chili sauce, which is simply delightful.
How to Choose Good Chicken Feet
- Chicken feet should be purchased from reputable stores, ensuring food safety.
- Choose chicken feet with a natural pinkish-white color, without any unusual colored spots such as green, red, or yellow on the skin.
- If they feel slimy to the touch or have strange fluids leaking out, do not buy them.
- Chicken feet that are water-injected appear uniform and attractive, plump, with the toes swollen; when squeezed, they feel soft. Normal chicken feet are small and unattractive, with four curled and bent toes.
- There are two types of chicken feet: native and industrial; industrial chicken feet are preferred because they have more meat, making them convenient for preparing deboned chicken feet dishes.
- You can buy pre-deboned chicken feet or buy them and debone them at home!
