KFC (Kachuss Fried Chicken)

 
It was before 3 years that my hubby downloaded a book of secret recipes for me...since then KFC chicken fry & coleslaw has found its own place on ma dinner table. I can't assure you that this is the exact thing, but 70-80% similar to the original one..the flavor came out really well....delicious & crispy ones too...

Ingredients:
Salt 2 tbsp(for marination) Flour 2 cup Pepper 1 tbsp
 Paprika 2 tbsp
Garlic salt 1 tsp ( i uses normal garlic powder instead of this)
Mustard 1 tbsp,Ground
 French thyme 1 tbsp,Ground
Sweet basil leaves/Tulsi 1 tbsp
Oregano 1 tsp,Ground
 Jamaica ginger 1 tbsp,Ground ( i uses normal ginger powder)Rosemary 1 tbspChicken bouillon 1 tbspMSG (Ajinomotto) 1 tspSoyabean Oil for deep frying ( Plesed don't substitute this oil)
Method:

Cut the chicken into big  pieces as you see in KFC. You can retain the skin if required.Marinate chicken in salted(2 tbsp) warm water for a minimum of 2 hrs.
Now dry the chicken pieces nicely using a strainer & then using paper towel.
Beat egg in milk and keep aside.
Mix all  the other ingredients in a food processor along with salt.
Now dip the chicken pieces in the flour mixture then in the milk & then again coat with the flour mixture nicely that all sides are coated evenly. 
Now fry in a deep fryer or in a deep bottomed vessel one at a time. Turn the chicken occasionally. If you fry it all together, the outer coating will stick to each other which may disturb its coating. And if you use a flat dish for frying , it won't be that crispier .
There is another addition to this....you can either bake this after frying to make it extra crispy or you can have it after frying alone. It's up to you. If you are baking, fry for 4 minutes only in medium-high heat; or else , fry in low heat so that the chicken is cooked properly.

If baking, bake in 350 F oven for 45 minutes covered in foil.
