Kentucky Fried Chicken
Meat
Spicy
Ingredients
- Chicken - 1 whole
- Oil - 2 quarts neutral frying
- Egg White - 1
- Flour - 1 1/2 cups
- Brown Sugar - 1 tablespoon
- Salt - 1 tablespoon
- paprika - 1 tablespoon
- onion salt - 2 teaspoons
- chili powder - 1 teaspoon
- black pepper - 1 teaspoon
- celery salt - 1/2 teaspoon
- sage - 1/2 teaspoon
- garlic powder - 1/2 teaspoon
- allspice - 1/2 teaspoon
- oregano - 1/2 teaspoon
- basil - 1/2 teaspoon
- marjoram - 1/2 teaspoon
Instructions
- Preheat fryer to 350°F. Thoroughly mix together all the spice mix ingredients.
- Combine spice mix with flour, brown sugar and salt.
- Dip chicken pieces in egg white to lightly coat them, then transfer to flour mixture. Turn a few times and make sure the flour mix is really stuck to the chicken. Repeat with all the chicken pieces.
- Let chicken pieces rest for 5 minutes so crust has a chance to dry a bit.
- Fry chicken in batches. Breasts and wings should take 12-14 minutes, and legs and thighs will need a few more minutes. Chicken pieces are done when a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 165°F.
- Let chicken drain on a few paper towels when it comes out of the fryer. Serve hot.
