Ingredients

  • 12 pieces of chicken, cut into portions
  • 8 cloves garlic
  • 1/2 tablespoon salt
  • 1 sachet Royco seasoning
  • 1/2 tablespoon ground pepper
  • 3 tablespoons tapioca flour
  • 9 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs, beaten

Instructions

  1. Start by washing the chicken pieces thoroughly and draining them well.

  2. In a mortar and pestle, grind the garlic cloves with salt until it forms a smooth paste.

  3. Rub the garlic paste all over the chicken pieces, ensuring they are well coated. Let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator overnight or for 1-2 hours.

  4. In a large bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, tapioca flour, ground pepper, and Royco seasoning until well combined.

  5. After marinating, remove the chicken from the refrigerator. Roll each piece of chicken in the flour mixture until evenly coated.

  6. Dip each coated chicken piece into the beaten eggs, ensuring they are fully covered.

  7. Roll the chicken pieces once again in the flour mixture to double coat them.

  8. Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the chicken pieces in batches until they are golden brown and crispy, about 6-8 minutes per side depending on the size of the pieces.

  9. Once fried, transfer the chicken pieces to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

  10. Serve the crispy Indonesian fried chicken hot and enjoy!
