I present to you your favorite Kentucky Fried Chicken Recipe. Very near to original taste, indeed this crispy and tender chicken recipe is a must try, do give us a feedback when you make yours.
Ingredients;
- 4 chicken pieces (drumstick, wings, breast)
- 2 litres of vegetable oil
- 1 cup of plain flour
- 3 tsp salt (for soaking)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp ground pepper
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp paprika powder
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup of milk
Procedure:
- Add the 3 tsp of salt in a large bowl, add enough water and place the chicken in it to soak for approximately 30 minutes
- Beat the egg in a small bowl and mix with the milk
- In another bowl, pour in the flour, add pepper, garlic, salt, onion, and paprika, and mix very well
- Remove the chicken from the water and dry with paper towel
- Using your hands pick up the piece of chicken one-at-a-time and dip it first into the egg & milk mixture turning it around to make sure it is well coated with the mixture
- Then immediately dip it in the flour mixture turning it around to make sure it is also well coated in it
- Then dip it back again for the second time in the egg & milk mixture and back again in the flour mixture, making sure that it is well coated.
Do this for the rest of the chicken pieces making sure that it is completely covered and well coated in the mixtures during each step
- In a large pan heat the oil until hot and ready for frying
- Carefully add in your coated chicken pieces one by one and dip fry for about 15-20 minutes, depending on the size of the chicken pieces until it they turn out golden brown. Do not forget to turn it occasionally
Now KFC uses pressure cookers to fry their chicken which i don't recommend you do at home, especially if you have kids around
- Remove from heat and drain in paper towel
- Serve and enjoy with your family. It turns out very crispy
