Crispy Homemade KFC-Style Chicken Recipe
Ingredients:
- 500 grams breadcrumbs
- 250 grams seasoned flour (such as Sajiku)
- 2 eggs
- 1 whole chicken, cut into pieces
- 100 ml ice-cold water
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground pepper
- 1 liter vegetable oil for frying
Instructions:
-
Begin by preparing the chicken: Wash and drain thoroughly.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, seasoned flour, salt, and pepper.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and ice-cold water until frothy.
-
Dip each piece of chicken into the egg mixture, then coat generously with the breadcrumb mixture. Repeat this coating process for a double or triple layer of breadcrumbs for extra crunch.
-
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat.

Carefully place the coated chicken pieces into the hot oil. Fry each side until golden brown and the chicken is cooked through, about 15-20 minutes.
-
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oil and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
-
Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauces or sambal.
