Extra Crisp Fried Chicken Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Rinse chicken well and pat it thoroughly dry.
  • Sift flours and spices together into a small paper bag so they are well mixed.
  • Drop chicken two or three pieces at a time into the bag and hold the bag closed and shake it so the chicken is thoroughly covered.
  • Transfer chicken to a wire cake rack and let it sit refrigerated for 2 hours so the flour will adhere.
  • Reserve the remaining flour mixture.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
  • Dredge the chicken once more in the flour mixture shaking off the excess.
  • When the oil is hot but not smoking add chicken making sure you do not crowd the pan.
  • Cover and cook until chicken begins to turn brown about 8 minutes reducing heat slightly if necessary.
  • Turn the chicken then cover and continue cooking until it is cooked through and the juices from the thigh run clear when pricked with a fork approximately 10 minutes.
  • Arrange chicken on a brown paper bag to drain and leave it for about 5 minutes then transfer to a warmed serving platter and garnish with parsley then serve immediately.
