Mix all together. In a bowl, combine the salt, flour, pepper, paprika, mustard, sweet basil, oregano, and Jamaica ginger. Ensure all the ingredients are thoroughly mixed to create a harmonious blend of flavors.

Prepare the chicken. Take pieces of chicken and dip them in slightly beaten raw egg. This will help the seasoning mix adhere to the chicken pieces, ensuring a delightful crunch and flavor in every bite.
-
Coat with spices. Roll the chicken pieces in the prepared seasoning mix, ensuring each piece is evenly coated. This step is crucial for infusing the chicken with the irresistible flavors of the seasoning mix.
-
Cook the chicken. There are two options for cooking the chicken:
- Deep frying: Heat oil in a deep fryer or large skillet. Carefully add the seasoned chicken pieces and fry until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
- Baking: Alternatively, you can bake the seasoned chicken pieces for a healthier option. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the chicken pieces in a foil-lined, metal, or glass pan. Bake for 45 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown.
