KFC Extra Crispy
After he perfected his original he made a crispy recipe that was marinated first then fried the conventional way. This one is double dunked into the coating to give it its great taste.
Ingrediënten
- 1 whole frying chicken cut up and marinated
- 6-8 cups shortening for cooking
- 1 egg beaten
- 1 cup milk
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 ½ teaspoons salt
- ¾ teaspoon pepper
- ¾ teaspoon MSG
- ⅛ teaspoon Paprika
- ⅛ teaspoon Garlic Powder
- ⅛ teaspoon Baking Powder
Instructies
- Trim any excess skin and fat from the chicken pieces.
- Preheat the shortening in a deep-fryer to 350 degrees.
- Combine the beaten egg and milk in a medium bowl.
- In another medium bowl, combine the remaining coating ingredients (flour, salt, pepper and MSG).
- When the chicken has marinated, transfer each piece to paper towels so that excess liquid can drain off.
- Working with one piece at a time, first dip in egg and milk then coat the chicken with the dry flour mixture, then the egg and milk mixture again, and then back into the flour.
- Be sure that each piece is coated very generously.
- Stack the chicken on a plate or cookie sheet until each piece has been coated.
- Drop the chicken, one piece at a time into the hot shortening.
- Fry half of the chicken at a time (4 pieces) for 12-15 minutes, or until it is golden brown.
- You should be sure to stir the chicken around halfway through the cooking time so that each piece cooks evenly.
- Remove the chicken to a rack or towels to drain for about 5 minutes before eating.
- Once he perfected his Extra Crispy he had customers who wanted it to be spicy and bold so he created his Hot and Spicy Chicken.
- Here is his original recipe which has changed a bit in this day and age.
- It comes frozen and is cooked frozen and not prepared fresh in many stores
