Not to mention the cruelty endured by chickens raised and slaughtered for KFC.
After years of waiting, you will finally be able to make KFC chicken at home.
You will see, it is not very complicated and it is much better than at KFC :
Ingredients for 4 persons
- 250g of flour
- 2/3 tablespoon of salt
- 1/2 tablespoon of dried thyme
- 1/2 tablespoon of dried basil
- 1/3 tablespoon of dried marjoram
- 1 tablespoon of celery salt
- 1 tablespoon of ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon of mustard powder
- 4 tablespoons of sweet paprika
- 2 tablespoons of garlic salt
- 1 tablespoon of powdered ginger
- 3 tablespoons of ground white pepper
- 125 g of light cream
- 1 beaten egg
- 1 free-range chicken, cut into pieces (cut the whites in half for a more even cooking)
- Colza oil
How to do
Cooking time : 30 mins
Marinating time: 20-30 min
Frying time: 15-18 mins
1. Combine the flour and all the spices in a large bowl.
2. Mix the beaten egg and the crème fraîche in another bowl.
3. Put the chicken pieces in the egg / cream mixture. Leave to marinate at room temperature, for 20 to 30 min.
4. Remove the chicken pieces from the egg / cream mixture. Hold them over the container for a moment to drain off any excess egg / cream mixture.
5. Dip the chicken pieces in the flour / spice mixture, until they are completely coated.
6. Let the chicken pieces rest on a rack (like this cooling rack), for 20 min.
7. Meanwhile, prepare the oil bath for frying the chicken. Pour 7-8 cm of rapeseed oil in a casserole dish (or any saucepan with high, thick walls).
8. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches a temperature of 175 ° C. To check the temperature, use a kitchen thermometer, like this digital thermometer.
9. Once the temperature of 175 ° C is reached, reduce to medium heat.
10. Dip 3 to 4 pieces of chicken in the oil bath until they are golden brown (for 15 to 18 min). Turn them only once during frying.
11. Arrange the chicken pieces in a dish and cover with paper towels.
