Garlic Chicken Fried Chicken

ByAdministrator

🧾 Ingredients:

For the Chicken:

  • 1 kg chicken (drumsticks or thighs)
  • 1 cup buttermilk (or milk + 1 tbsp vinegar)
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder

For the Coating:

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup cornstarch
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp chili powder (optional)

For Frying:

  • Vegetable oil

👨‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Marinate:

  1. In a bowl, mix buttermilk, minced garlic, salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
  2. Add chicken and marinate for at least 2 hours (overnight = best flavor).

2. Prepare Coating:

  1. Mix flour, cornstarch, and all spices in a bowl.

3. Coat the Chicken:

  1. Remove chicken from marinade (don’t shake off too much).
  2. Dredge in flour mixture, pressing well to create a rough, crispy texture.

4. Fry:

  1. Heat oil to 170–175°C (340°F).
  2. Fry chicken for 12–15 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  3. Place on paper towels or a rack.

🔥 Tips:

  • Double-dip (marinade → flour → marinade → flour) for extra crunch 🔥
  • Don’t overcrowd the pan—keeps it crispy
  • Let it rest a few minutes before eating (locks in juices)

💡 Pro Upgrade:
Toss the fried chicken in a quick garlic butter sauce (butter + garlic + parsley) for insane flavor 🤯
