KFC COPYCAT FRIED CHICKEN: BETTER THAN THE COLONEL'S RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:

• Mix dry ingredients in large bowl. Set aside. Put chicken and buttermilk in two large plastic Ziploc bags or a flat dish and marinate in the refrigerator for at least two hours, turning every 30 minutes. This tenderizes the meat as well as removes any blood. When ready to cook, remove chicken pieces from buttermilk, shake off excess liquid. Toss with dry ingredients. The chicken should be lightly covered, but it's okay if there are a few missed spots. You can also shake chicken with the dry ingredients in a large Ziploc bag. Fill a large, heavy bottomed skillet or deep pot with enough oil to cover halfway up the largest piece of chicken. Heat oil to 325-350 degrees. If you don't have a cooking thermometer, wait for small bubbles to form. Adjust heat so the oil bubbles are steady but not too rapid. Working in two or more batches, place the coated chicken in the hot oil. After about eight minutes, the chicken will be golden brown underneath. Turn over once and cook for an additional eight minutes or until nicely browned on both sides. The cooking process will agitate the pieces slightly, so you don't need to shift them around in the pan. After frying, place chicken on a metal sheet tray covered in a paper towel and transfer to 200-degree oven to keep warm until serving. The chicken will stay moist for up to an hour.

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.
• Allow chicken to soak in salted water for 30 minutes. Mix egg and milk in a bowl. Mix flour, and all (12) other seasonings, in another bowl.
• Preheat deep fryer to 350 F, or place 3/4 inch oil in a skillet over medium heat.
• Dry chicken with a paper towel. Dredge in flour mixture. Dip into milk-egg mixture, then back into flour mixture. Do this one piece at a time making sure that there is total coverage over entire surface of chicken in each step. ENJOY

TASTY KFC STYLE FRIED CHICKEN RECIPE

• Pour flour into a large bowl, combine spices in a separate bowl, pour spices in with flour and stir well to combine all ingredients.
• Take individual pieces of chicken out of marinade and turn over in flour and spice mixture to coat entire piece. Each side should be coated 7 times so rotate and dip each piece of chicken in the mixture a total of 14 times.
• Place coated pieces of chicken in the air fryer basket with enough space around each piece of chicken so that air can get all around it.
• Place air fryer at 360 degrees and cook for 18-22 minutes. Check after 9 minutes and flip the pieces, check again in 9 minutes and test internal temperature with a meat thermometer.
• Make sure you reach 165 degrees in internal temperature with your meat thermometer. Smaller pieces may need to be taken out at 18 minutes, while larger pieces may need a few more minutes of cooking time. Let your thermometer be the judge.
