KFC ORIGINAL RECIPE CHICKEN

Steps:

• Add the spices to a small food processor until they're all uniform in size and the thyme, basil and oregano aren't larger in size anymore.
• Add the flour in a bowl with all the herbs and spices and mix with a whisk.
• In a second larger bowl add the buttermilk and egg together and whisk until combined.
• Add the chicken to the buttermilk mixture for 20-30 minutes.
• Remove chicken from the buttermilk soak and let any excess buttermilk drip off.
• Dredge the chicken pieces in the flour mixture on all sides, then shake off the excess coating.
• Let it rest on a cookie sheet for 20-30 minutes.
• Add oil to a deep fryer or a large pot that is at least 5 inches high so that the chicken can be fully submerged.
• Heat the oil to 350 degrees and fry in small batches for 15-18 minutes.
• Remove the chicken from the oil and add to a drying rack on top of a clean cookie sheet.
• If you add it to a paper towel or newspaper the bottom of the chicken will steam from the heat and become soft.

Steps:

• NOTES: FOR AUTHENTIC RESULTS, PREPARE RECIPE EXACTLY AS DIRECTED. MSG (ACCENT SEASONING) IS IN THE ACTUAL ORIGINAL RECIPE, BUT MAY BE OMITTED IF NECESSARY. EGG WHITE POWDER IS SOLD IN HEALTH FOOD STORES. YOU MAY SUBSTITUTE EGG WHITE POWDER WITH CORNSTARCH. FINELY GRIND REQUIRED HERBS AND SPICES SEPARATELY IN A CLEAN SPICE MILL OR COFFEE GRINDER. USE A PEPPER MILL TO MEDIUM-GRIND TELLICHERRY PEPPERCORNS. I RECOMMEND MCCORMICK BRAND TELLICHERRY BLACK PEPPER AND GROUND GINGER, SPICE ISLANDS BRAND GROUND SAGE AND CARDAMOM, SPICE APPEAL BRAND GROUND SAVORY, AND WILLIAMS-SONOMA BRAND GROUND TAHITIAN VANILLA BEAN. CHICKEN NOTES: DO NOT DOUBLE-BREAD CHICKEN SINCE IT PLACES AN EXCESS OF SODIUM AND SPICES ONTO FINAL PRODUCT AND COMPROMISES AUTHENTICITY (IF YOU INSIST ON DOUBLE-BREADING, DIFFUSE THE BREADING MIX FIRST BY ADDING A LITTLE MORE UNSEASONED FLOUR). BRINING BONELESS CHICKEN SHOULD BE DONE MUCH MORE QUICKLY (NO MORE THAN 45 MINUTES, TO AVOID OVER-SATURATION OF SALT). BONELESS CHICKEN COOKS MUCH MORE QUICKLY THAN BONE-IN CHICKEN (BE CAREFUL TO NOT OVERCOOK!). FRYING FAT NOTES: ALWAYS BEGIN WITH FRESH VEGETABLE OIL. AFTER USING LET IT COOL. FILTER, THEN REFRIGERATE TIGHTLY SEALED TO YIELD 6-12 FRYING BATCHES, REPLENISHING OIL AS NEEDED.
• RINSE and blot chicken; CUT chicken into 8 pieces (or 10 pieces with breast portions cut in half); MIX 2 quarts (8 cups) cups cold water with 2 tablespoons Morton Lite Salt (OR 2 tablespoons fine sea salt), and 2 teaspoons Accent seasoning in a large container with an accompanying lid, until dissolved; ADD chicken pieces; COVER and transfer to refrigerator; MARINATE chicken at least 4 hours in refrigerator. NOTE: FOR A QUICKER STOVETOP MARINATION METHOD, PIERCE CHICKEN PIECES WELL WITH A FORK, THEN HEAT THE MARINADE WITH CHICKEN, COVERED, OVER LOW HEAT UNTIL HEATED THROUGH, TURNING ONCE).
• MEASURE the BASE MIXTURE and 11 SECRET HERBS AND SPICES into a large re-sealable container; BREAK up any clumps (and nonfat milk granules) using the back of a spoon; SEAL the container with mixture; SHAKE to mix well; OPEN container and add the BREADING FLOUR (2 cups unbleached bread flour), then seal the container again; SHAKE well until thoroughly combined.
• REMOVE chicken from brine; PLACE one piece chicken at a time into the breading mixture container; SEAL container firmly; SHAKE chicken gently in all motions to thoroughly coat chicken until evenly and generously breaded; PLACE breaded chicken piece onto a rack to rest; REPEAT with remaining pieces chicken; ALLOW breaded chicken to absorb the breading for a few minutes before frying.
• ADD the manufacturer's recommended amount frying oil for deep-frying; PLACE deep-fryer basket into place in deep-fryer; PREHEAT fryer to 315°F (or preheat enough fat to immerse chicken completely in deep heavy stovetop pot between 315°F to 325°F, using a standard deep-fryer thermometer to gauge).
• CAREFULLY drop each piece breaded chicken one at a time, gently into the deep-fryer basket without crowding (if a standard size home fryer is used, add no more than 2-3 pieces at a time); (if stovetop frying, gently place breaded chicken pieces into hot oil using tongs, turning once halfway through frying duration).
• FRY chicken between 15-18 minutes until golden brown and fully cooked, depending on chicken portions/sizes (juices should run clear when chicken is done); BLOT chicken lightly to absorb excess oil; PLACE cooked chicken into a large resealable container to steam (the steam will soften the breading for added Original Recipe authenticity. If you prefer crisp breading, skip this procedure).
• MAINTAIN frying fat temperature for each new batch and repeat the same cooking/steaming procedures for the remaining chicken.
• REHEAT chicken if necessary before serving in a microwave oven, using a reduced-power setting, as if reheating 2 frozen pastries, pausing in intervals to turn chicken for even heating if necessary.
• SERVE and enjoy!

KFC EXTRA CRISPY CHICKEN (COPYCAT)

Steps:

• NOTES: USE ONLY SELF-RISING FLOUR (MAKE YOUR OWN, IF NECESSARY, FOLLOWING A TRUSTED RECIPE). YOU MAY USE MASA HARINA FLOUR (TAMALE FLOUR) IN PLACE OF CORN FLOUR.

• PREHEAT manufacturer's recommended amount of pure shortening or vegetable oil (or a blend of both) in deep-fryer to 315°F (OR) preheat enough fat to immerse chicken completely in deep heavy stovetop pot to 315°F - 325°F (use a heat-safe thermometer to gauge).
• PLACE breaded chicken to the elevated fry basket in deep-fryer without crowding; LOWER the basket slowly into the hot fat (or gently lower breaded chicken pieces using tongs into stovetop pot, turning once halfway through frying duration).
• FRY chicken between 16-20 minutes until golden brown and fully cooked, depending on chicken portions/sizes (juices should run clear when chicken is done).

GENUINE KFC SECRET RECIPE CHICKEN

Steps:

• Mix all dry ingredients, except breadcrumbs, well in a large bowl.
• Dip chicken pieces in beaten eggs.
• Then turn them over in regular bread crumbs.
• Finally plunge them in the flour-spices mixture.
• Heat oven to 350 degrees.
• Place chicken in a tray and cover with foil (shiny side out).
• Cook 40 minutes.
• Remove the foil then cook for another 40 minutes.
• Baste lightly with oil 5 minutes before the end.
• Let stand 5 minutes and serve.

KFC ORIGINAL RECIPE

Steps:

• Combine and place both oils in pressure cooker and heat to 350 degrees F.
• In a medium bowl, combine the egg and milk.
• In a separate bowl, combine all non-liquid ingredients and mix well.
• Dip each piece of chicken into the egg / milk mixture until well coated.
• Roll the moistened chicken in the flower mixture until well coated.
• In groups of 4, drop the coated chicken pieces into the fryer and lock the lid.
• Cook for 8 - 9 minutes (note pressure will build up around the first two minutes). Allow chicken to cook under pressure for the remaining time (approx. 6-7 minutes under pressure).
• After 8-9 minutes, remove heat and allow pressure to diminish (or open safety pressure release if your pressure cooker has one). Always follow your manufacturer's instructions on how to safely use your pressure cooker. DO NOT attempt this recipe if your pressure cooker is not rated for oil cooking. Always follow your manufacture's instructions on proper use of a pressure cooker.
• It is not necessary to use a pressure cooker if you do not have one. However, I have found that when frying in an open pan, the batter mix will get very crispy and loose the intended flavor. If using a frying pan (instead of pressure cooker), fry for a total of 12-15 minutes to ensure chicken is cooked thoroughly.
