I brine all my chicken overnight. 10% salt by weight (minus half for bones) and 5% sugar, dissolved in water. That's like 2 tablespoons a pound salt/1 tablespoon sugar up to like 3 pounds, then 1/1 and a half per pound after

if I don't cook it I drain and freeze it.


anyway,
1-2 eggs
1 part garlic powder
1 part onion powder
1 part smoked paprika
1/2 part celery salt
1/4 cumin
1.4 baking powder

mix it and coat the chicken in it

AP flour
kosher salt
white pepper (or I add as much black pepper that'll coat the top of the container of flour :mjlol:)
cayenne (or not)
MSG
Wyler's powdered chicken boullion
Tumeric (give your chicken Da Glow™)

dredge and throw it in the grease.

10 minutes for wings, 16 for legs and thighs, I never fried a breast in my life.

Hit it with honey and sriracha :shaq:


That's the basic without getting into sauces and the like.

No doubt breh
:jawalrus:

I normally use Cajun/Maggi cube over Italian/Sazon but it's all up to you and your preference

IMO

Cajun - just enough smokiness and good aftertaste for chicken

Italian - zesty but works great with the breading

Maggi Cube - keeps chicken from tasting bland. Adds juiciness and flavor to the meat

Sazon - very effective in a pinch. Just don't use too much. Strong salty taste.


Just be sure to be generous with the bread crumbs. The overall taste is comparable to KFC chicken, but crispier breading and a heartier spicing
Perfect. Thanks again breh.
