Secondly, the way both of these dishes are prepared the chicken for ayam geprek is battered and deep-fried until it is crispy and golden. After frying, it will be smashed with a pestle and a mortar which flattens the chicken and lets it soak up onto the spicy sambal. Making every bite crispy and full of flavor. For the ayam penyet the chicken is also deep-fried until crispy but it is not smashed as hard as ayam geprek, unlike ayam penyet it keeps its original shape, so the inside stays tender and juicy. The sambal is placed on top or served on the side and the chicken is gently pressed to release a little juice without losing its texture.
