  3. Roll the chicken pieces in the sweet potato starch to cover evenly.
  4. Heat oil to about 350 degrees Fahrenheit (if you throw some sweet potato starch in the oil, it should sink to the middle of the frying pan, then float to the top).

  6. Remove from oil and place on paper towels, sprinkle white pepper and salt while hot, enjoy!
