KFC Style Chicken

Serves 4
24 hours
Difficulty Easy
12 Ingredients

Tastes like the real thing! A great treat for the family

Ingredients (serves 4)

3 cups SR Flour
1 Small carton Buttermilk
4 Chicken Breast cut into large chunks
2 tsp Paprika
2 tsp Onion salt
1 tsp Dried sage
1 tsp Garlic powder
1 tsp Oregano
1 tsp Cayenne pepper
1 tsp Cracked black pepper
1 tsp Dried basil
oil For frying

Method

Place the chicken in a container and cover with buttermilk. (Reserve at least 4 TBS)
Marinate at least 3-4 hours or better still, overnight
Mix the flour and the spices together with a fork
Add 3 TBS of buttermilk and mix with a fork until flour has a clumpy breadcrumb texture.
Remove chicken from the buttermilk and immediately place into the flour mixture
Coat the chicken well on both sides
Heat the oil to 170 degrees or until a small piece of bread bubbles when placed into the oil
Fry until golden brown and cooked through (I always fry one piece to test it and get the cooking time right)

Havent yet tried this but I think I will. KFC tastes great but is always oily and it is expensive.

Thank you for this. should be a lot less oilier then KFC. Would be lovely to be able to enjoy chicken this way again. Though I will be using an air fryer as we do not dry fry in this house.
