Home Made Fried Chicken

Ingredients

1-2 pounds chicken tenders or 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts sliced into 1-inch thick strips

1 1/2 cups all purpose flour

3/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 egg beaten

Corn flour

1 teaspoon Red chili

1 teaspoon chili Flakes

Coriander and cumin powder

vegetable oil for frying

 

Instructions

Fill a 9-inch cast iron or standard skillet with about 2 inches of oil. Start heating it over medium-high heat while you bread the chicken. (Keep an eye on it!)

In a large bowl, mix the flour, salt and pepper.

In another large bowl  chicken, salt, Coriander and cumin powder , black pepper, chili Flakes, Red chili, Corn flour, flour mixed.

Dredge the chicken in the flour, coating well. Shake off excess flour

Set the chicken to the side to rest for about 5 minutes.

Check your oil temperature with a candy thermometer if necessary (you should be around 375 degrees) or drop in a little bit of flour–if it sizzles immediately, you can add one piece of chicken.

If the chicken sizzles, add about 5 pieces at a time and cook until golden brown on that side–about 8 to 10 minutes or so.

Turn, and repeat until all brown.

Cook the rest of the chicken in batches.

Transfer to a paper towel lined plate and sprinkle with a little more salt if needed.
