Crispy Chicken Recipe (NON-VEG RECIPE)
When it comes to chicken there just isn’t anything more delicious than a juicy, crusty piece of finger-licking good fried chicken. It might seem intimidating to fry your own chicken, but it’s actually pretty straightforward and it puts grocery store and fast food fried chicken to shame. If you have a thermometer for the oil and a timer, you can produce fail-proof fried chicken. If you’ve ever wanted to make your own fried chicken, now is the time to try! Cornstarch is one of our recommended ingredients for the crispiest fried chicken. Cornstarch is often used in Asian fried chicken recipes. The combination of the flour with cornstarch produces the crispiest result. You can replace all of the flour with cornstarch, or you can try using a similar non-gluten-based flour or flour blend in place of traditional all-purpose flour.

Step 1 Coat the chicken with egg and flour
The coating needs to be done with separate ingredients, dedicate one hand to dry coating and one to wet for a lesser mess. To begin, add flour to a deep-bottomed large dish and season it with garlic salt, paprika and black pepper, and some regular salt. In a different dish, beat the eggs and add the water to it. Take the washed and dried chicken pieces and dip each piece in the egg mix once and then coat with flour. Repeat this process with each piece and keep them aside.

Step 2 Fry and serve!
Heat oil in a pan and insert a wooden spoon to check if you do not have a thermometer. If you see lazy bubbles, start adding the chicken, and do not move it as soon as you put it into the oil. Let it sit for about 2 minutes. This helps the crumbs stay in place, resulting in a flaky coating. Now move the chicken, take out when a rich golden color is achieved, and serve with your favorite sauce!
Description:
There are lots of options when it comes to the oil used for deep frying. Common options include peanut oil, vegetable oil, canola oil, safflower oil, corn oil, and more. Vegetable oil is the oil we recommend using for deep frying. It has a high smoke point and once used for frying, can be reused. Simply let the oil cool down completely, strain it, and return it to a storage container for later use. The best temperature to fry chicken at is 350 degrees Fahrenheit. It is normal though for the oil temperature to fluctuate while cooking. As long as your oil is between 300 and 350 degrees Fahrenheit, your chicken should come out perfect.
