There is nothing more comforting than biting into a hot, crispy piece of fried chicken. Fried chicken has to be one of my favorite foods in the entire world. I mean, its THAT good! Today I am going to share one of my go to recipes when I want a really good piece of fried chicken, from home. I hope you love it as much as I do.
1 Drumstick per person or more 🙂
Ingredients:
6-8 chicken drumsticks
Vegetable oil for frying
1.5 cups flour
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp pepper
1 tsp paprika
Adobo seasoning
2 eggs
- Pour oil into a dutch oven until the oil is 3 inches deep into it and turn on medium heat.
- Pour the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, and paprika into a bowl – this is the dredge.
- Crack 2 eggs and whisk it in a bowl.
- Place the chicken drum sticks on a plate.
- Sprinkle Adobo seasoning on both sides of the chicken drumsticks.
- Place the plate of chicken at the head of the line, then the flour mixture, and then the egg mixture, followed by a separate plate for the completely dredged drumstick.
- Place a drumstick in the flour until well coated.
- Then place it in the egg mixture.
- Put it back into the flour mixture, roll it around, and set aside.
- Repeat steps 6 through 8 for the remaining drumsticks.
- Once the oil is hot, place 4-5 drumsticks in the dutch oven.
- Let it sit in the oil for 10- 15 mins and then turn with a metal fork or metal tongs. Each time you turn it, the rotated side should be a golden brown hue.
- When it appears they are done, completely golden brown, take a food thermometer and check to see if they are around 165 degrees. If so put them on a plate with a paper towel to cool. If they are not, keep cooking them.
- Continue steps 10-12 until the remain drumsticks are done.
- Serve with your favorite sides and enjoy!
