DOMINICAN FRIED CHICKEN (CHICHARRONES DE POLLO)
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- In a large nonreactive mixing bowl or plastic zip-top bag, combine lime juice, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and minced garlic.
- Add the chicken strips and allow to marinate for 30 minutes or up to 3 hours.
- Gather the ingredients.
- In a separate mixing bowl or plastic zip-top bag, combine the flour, paprika, pepper, and salt and mix well.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade. Discard the leftover marinade . Pat the chicken pieces with paper towels. You want them moist enough for the coating to stick, but not so wet that it slides off.
- Coat the marinated chicken well with the seasoned flour mixture.
- Gather the ingredients.
- Place the vegetable oil for frying into a deep-sided frying pan, or use a deep fryer if you have one. Heat the oil over medium-high heat to 360 F (182 C).
- Don't overheat or under-heat the oil. You want the chicken to start cooking when you place it in the oil, but not spatter hot oil.
- Don't crowd the pan with the chicken. Fry it in batches until golden brown outside and completely cooked inside (about 2 minutes per side). The chicken should not be pink in the middle. The Food and Drug Administration recommends 165 F (74 C).
- Place chicken on a plate lined with a paper towel to absorb the oil. Keep the chicken warm until you are ready to serve it.

Steps:

- Coat chicken: Combine flour, salt, pepper, oregano, and garlic powder. Mix well. Coat the chicken strips with this mixture. Shake excess off.
- Fry: Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat (350 ºF [175 ºC). Deep fry the chicken until it turns golden brown (3-4 minutes on each side) --careful with hot oil splatters! Fry them three by three to avoid lowering the oil temperature too much.Place on a paper towel to drain excess oil.
- Serve: Garnish with lime wedges and serve with tostones.

This is my mom's recipe, and still my favorite. It's just as good at room temp as it is hot (well, almost).
