kentucky fried chicken kfc
Ingredients:
2−3 pounds cut−up chicken pieces
1 Quart Water
3 Tbsp Salt (for soaking)
1 Cup milk
1 Egg, beaten
2 Cups flour
1 tsp Accent (MSG) (optional)
1 Tbsp Salt
1 tsp Black pepper
Vegetable Oil (no substitutions) for frying
Instructions:
1. Allow chicken to soak in salted water for a half hour.
2. Mix egg and milk in a bowl. Mix flour, accent, salt, and pepper in another bowl.
3. Preheat deep fryer to 350F, or place 3/4 inch oil in a skillet set on medium.
4. Dry chicken with paper towels.
5. Dredge in flour mixture, place in milk/eggs, and then back to flour mixture.
6. Do this one piece at a time making sure that there is total coverage over entire surface of chicken in each step.
Notes:
KFC uses pressure cookers to fry chicken, which is risky to do at home.
If you are using a deep fryer, fry a few pieces at a time for about 20 minutes, covered, turning occasionally.
Likewise, if pan frying, cook, covered, turning occasionally for about 30 minutes.
As always with chicken, check the middle of a large piece to check for doneness.
Allow to drain on paper towels when cooking is completed.
