Ingredients:

  • 1 kg chicken, cut into pieces
  • 1 packet sajiku fried chicken seasoning
  • Freshly grated galangal (as needed)
  • 2 tbsp cooking oil
  • Water, as needed

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Chicken:
    Start by cleaning the chicken pieces thoroughly.

  2. Season the Chicken:
    Coat the chicken pieces with sajiku fried chicken seasoning. For best results, gently massage the seasoning into the chicken.

  3. Add Galangal and Oil:
    Mix in the freshly grated galangal, cooking oil, and enough water to ensure the chicken is evenly coated. Massage the ingredients into the chicken pieces again until well combined.

  4. Cook the Chicken:
    Place the chicken in a pot over low heat. Let it simmer gently for approximately 30-45 minutes, ensuring the chicken cooks through and becomes tender. A longer cooking time can further enhance the tenderness of the chicken.

  5. Cool and Fry:
    Once cooked, turn off the heat and allow the chicken to cool slightly.

  6. Fry the Chicken:
    Heat oil in a frying pan or deep fryer. Fry the chicken pieces until golden brown and crispy. Strain out the galangal pieces before frying to ensure a smooth texture.

  7. Serve:
    Serve the Lazy Day Fried Chicken hot alongside fresh vegetables (lalapan) and sambal terasi for a delicious meal. Enjoy!
