KFC style Fried Chicken

Have you ever wondered how the combination of just flour, salt, pepper and chicken can taste so good?

I have, many a times, whenever I happen to snack at KFC. Back in 2000 when I came to US for the first time, I was so much addicted to this food, that this became the evening snack on the way back home from work.  Ahh..those carefree days...:)

Last week I made these for my kid. Something interesting for him to eat as he was giving me a hard time, literally eating nothing for the past two weeks because of cough and cold. He seemed to like it and had a few pieces, which made me happy..:)

Ingredients:

Boneless chicken pieces , cut into thin strips

salt and pepper as required

1 egg

2 cups all purpose flour

Method:

Marinate the chicken with little salt and  pepper.

Break an egg in a wide bowl, add salt and pepper, and whisk well

Take the flour in a plate .

Heat oil in a saucepan for frying.

Dip the chicken in egg , and the coat with flour, again dip in the egg and coat with the flour.

Drop in the hot oil and fry till golden.

Serve with your favorite sauce.

Note:

Dipping the chicken twice in egg gives a nice crunchy layer, but its up to the individual's taste. To make it more spicy, you can also add some hot sauce to the egg.
