Homemade KFC Style Popcorn Chicken
Ingredients
2 Chicken Breast Fillets
1/2 Tsp Salt
1/2 Tsp Black Pepper
1 Tbsp Soy Sauce
1 Medium-sized egg
1 Tbsp Corn Starch
For coating
1 Cup All-Purpose Flour
1 Tbsp Red Chili Powder or Paprika
Note: You can also add any spices of your liking: e.g Garlic, Onion Powder
Oil for frying
Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
This recipe is designed to copycat KFC popcorn chicken. But you don’t have to go that route. The basic technique and your own spices would do just fine. It’s fun to experiment and chicken is cheap.
A variation that pops up in my mind is Buffalo Wings Popcorn chicken. Add hot sauce to the recipe and serve with blue cheese dipping sauce and celery sticks.
The recipe calls for chicken breasts cut to size. If you don’t mind splurging a bit chicken tenders make a much better product. Chicken tenders are the “filet mignon” of the chicken.
The variations are really unlimited. Play with it. Have fun. Enjoy!
