Chicken Fry ( KFC style )

This is  one  of recipes i got  from my friend and neighbour   from chennai , But the  same  recipe  is also posted by vah chef. Its almost the same  with a little a difference  in the  first  step. But  both taste  great .Its  simple  to make but  people  who  hate il will stay  away from it  as it requires deep  frying.

Ingredients:

To  marinate ;

•   1 lb of  chicken  ( washed  cleaned and  if  pieces are big then  you have a  make  tiny slits  on them )
•  1tsp Chilli powder
•  1 tsp Ginger garlic  paste
•  Lemon juice ( from one lemon  medium sized)
•  Salt

 To Coat:

• 1 egg
• 1/2tsp of  Ginger garlic  paste 
• salt 
• 1/2 tsp of  chilli powder
• Curry leaves
• Cilantro/ coriander leaves
• 1cup maida
• 1/4 cup bread crumbs
• food  colour 
• Oil for  frying 

How  i did  it  :

  Take water and add ginger garlic paste, chilli powder, salt , and lemon juice  now add the chicken pieces to it. Should immerse completely,  the  water  level should  be above the  chicken pieces . Soak it for 4-5 hrs.  I prefer to leave it in the fridge overnight. If u are in a  a  hurry  u  can  do the whole process  using  warm  water and  leaving  it for  1  hr .

Drain  the  water and  take  the  pieces in a dry  plate . 

In  another  bowl  add 1 egg, add  chilli powder, salt ( add a  little  as u have added it  n marination too), ginger garlic paste  and  curry leaves and  cilantro. mix  well.

In another  plate  take  your  all purpose flour, mix  bread crumbs , add a  pinch  of  food  colour and  salt and chilli powder( adjust the  amount of  chilli powder  and  salt in all the three steps  so that  u  do  end  up adding more.)

Take the  chicken pieces  dip it in the  egg mix, roll  in to the  dry  flour  and  then  deep fry it in  oil  at  medium  flame .
