Before starting, wash and dry all produce.Heat Guide for Step 5 (dbl for 4 ppl): 1/2 tbsp mild, 1 tbsp medium, 1 1/2 tbsp spicy and 2 tbsp for extra-spicy! Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.While the pan heats, pat corn dry with paper towels. When hot, add corn to the dry pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until dark-brown in spots, 5-6 min.Transfer corn to a medium bowl. Add half the spicy mayo. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, then stir to combine.Carefully wipe the pan clean.

When the pan is hot, add 1/3 cup oil or enough to completely cover the bottom of the pan. Wait 30 seconds for the oil to heat, then add chicken. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, cook chicken in 2 batches, removing any bits from the oil with a slotted spoon before adding more oil for the second batch.)Shallow fry until golden-brown and cooked through, 3-4 min per side.** (NOTE: Reduce heat to medium-low if chicken starts to brown too fast.)Transfer chicken to a wire rack, then sprinkle a pinch of salt over top.
