Ingredients
1 whole Chicken
2 quarts neutral frying Oil
1 Egg White
1 1/2 cups Flour
1 tablespoon Brown Sugar
1 tablespoon Salt
1 tablespoon paprika
2 teaspoons onion salt
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon celery salt
1/2 teaspoon sage
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon basil
1/2 teaspoon marjoram
Preparation
- Preheat fryer to 350°F.
- Thoroughly mix together all the spice mix ingredients.
- Combine spice mix with flour, brown sugar and salt.
- Dip chicken pieces in egg white to lightly coat them, then transfer to flour mixture.
- Turn a few times and make sure the flour mix is really stuck to the chicken.
- Repeat with all the chicken pieces.
- Let chicken pieces rest for 5 minutes so crust has a chance to dry a bit.
- Fry chicken in batches.
- Breasts and wings should take 12-14 minutes, and legs and thighs will need a few more minutes.
- Chicken pieces are done when a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 165°F.
- Let chicken drain on a few paper towels when it comes out of the fryer.
- Serve hot.
