Instructions to make Spicy Fried Chicken:
- 30 Minutes Before Cooking: Prepare the chicken by tenderizing & cutting to your liking. Have pieces soak in a mixture of pickle juice and Tabasco.
- Heat up your oil to 375 degrees. Create your Dry and Wet mixes in separate bowls. Drain your chicken, pat it dry.
- Start by covering the chicken in your dry mix, then into the wet mix, and a final time into the dry mixture.
- Place 4-5 coated tenderloins into the fryer basket, let cook for 2 minutes OR light brown. They'll darken when drying, more time for breasts, less time for thinner strips.
- After removing the chicken to dry, while fresh out of the fryer add salt, and the "serving touches" If reheating- add spices into the pan's oil then reheat.
