Dec 05, 2007 by Chboogs D. Putipina | 2 Comments
Ingredients
- 1 whole chicken cut into pieces
- oil for frying
- 3 tbsp rock salt
- 5 cups water
- 3/4 cup all purpose flour
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 1 tbsp Italian seasoning
- 1/2 tsp dried basil
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 2 tbsp DRY instant chicken broth
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
Step 1
Mix water and rock salt to make brine. Soak the chicken in it for about an hour in the fridge.
Step 2
Step 3
Remove the chicken from the brine and rinse with water. Pat with some paper towel to remove extra moisture then dredge in coating mix.
Step 4
Deep fry in hot oil over medium high heat for about 15-20 minutes or until chicken is done. In this recipe I used some margarine and mixed it with the oil for richer taste.
Step 5
Step 6
In the same pan, I remove the oil leaving just enough to use in making a rue out of the remaining breading mixture. Add some water or chicken stock and whisk until it boils and become thick. Adjust seasoning if needed.
Step 7
Serve while still hot!
