FRIED CHICKEN ( KFC STYLE)

Print Recipe

Equipment

  • mixing bowls
  • deep round pan ( karahi)
  • trays

Ingredients
  

For marination

  • 1 chicken (approximately 800g-1kg)
  • 1 tbsp tomato ketchup
  • 2 tsp maggi masala
  • 2 tsp ginger garlic paste
  • Salt
  • 2 tsp chilli powder
  • 1 tsp Black pepper powder
  • 3 tbsp butter milk
  • (To make it at home, just add 2 tsp lemon juice in a ¼ cup milk.)

For Frying

  • Cooking oil for deep frying 
  • Plain flour for coating (approximately 500g)

Instructions
 

  • Marinate the chicken with all the ingredients in the marinate section. Leave aside for at least 3-4 hrs if possible
  • Coat each piece of chicken with flour then dip in water and then again dip in flour. Meanwhile heat the oil for frying. Fry the coated pieces in the oil. First at high heat when the coating gets crisp on top then on medium for about 6-8 minutes so the chicken gets cooked from inside. Before taking out the pieces from the oil, keep the flame high again for 1min or so and then take it out. Place it on a wire rack to drain the excess oil. This helps to maintain a crispy outer layer on the chicken.
  • This recipe can also be used to make spicy fried wings. You can adjust the level of spice according to your taste. 

For the dip

  • Mix in 3 tbsp of mayonnaise with 1/4 tsp honey and 1 tbsp of sriracha sauce or any other red hot chilli sauce.
