For all those in need of the perfect late night snack, our friend Tiffoodss shared with us her 3 Ingredient Mala Spiced Popcorn Chicken Recipe! It's crispy, tingly, and best paired with fried basil for a super simple, super flavorful snack.

Mala, the signature flavor of Sichuan cuisine means "spicy and numbing". Made of 11 potent herbs and spices, including Erjingtiao Chili and Tribute Peppers, our dry spice blend adds oomph to any spice rub, batter, or rim of a marg on a Friday night.
