Main Ingredients ● 10.58 Oz boneless chicken ● Deep frying oil For the Marination ● 0.5 Oz green chilli, garlic, and ginger paste ● 0.5 Oz dried oregano ● 0.5 Oz paprika powder ● Salt as per taste For the Dusting Mixture ● 3.38 Oz breadcrumbs ● 3.38 Oz flour ● Black pepper according to taste ● Salt according to taste ● 4 Oz buttermilk For the Flavoring Mixture ● 0.25 Oz paprika powder ● 0.08 Oz dried oregano ● 0.08 Oz onion powder ● 0.08 Oz garlic powder ● 0.12 Oz powdered sugar
Detailed Process 1. Cut the chicken thigh boneless into small pieces, about 1 inch in size approximately. 2. Marinate the boneless chicken pieces with the marination mixture and let them sit for 30 minutes.
3. Then, season both the flour and breadcrumbs with required black pepper and salt. 4. Arrange ingredients in the order of flour, buttermilk, and breadcrumbs. 5. Take the chicken pieces and begin coating them first with flour, then the buttermilk, and finally the breadcrumbs. Let them sit on an iron rack so the excess mixture can drain. 6. Heat the oil in a frying pan, and then fry the chicken pieces batch-wise on medium flame. Take the chicken pieces out when they turn golden and are evenly fried. 7. In a bowl, prepare the spice mix by adding all the ingredients together. 8. Dust the chicken pieces with the spice mix. Make sure that you do it when the chicken pieces are hot to ensure maximum penetration. Alternatively, you can also sprinkle the spice mix over the fried and semi-hot chicken pieces. Enjoy this KFC-style popcorn chicken at home with whatever you like. You can consume them with mayo sauce or cheese, a garlic dip, or anything else. We are sure you will love this recipe!
