Kentucky Fried Chicken
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.
