Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to fry chicken in breadcrumbs? Prepare the necessary ingredients. Peel the chicken, wash it well, dry it and cut it into portions. Different parts of the carcass will fit: shins, thighs, wings. If you take the wings, cut off the tips from them. You can change the set of spices to suit your taste preferences. Prepare a plate with flour.
Step 2:
To begin, marinate the meat. I took the legs. Transfer them to a wide bowl and add salt.
Step 3:
Squeeze the juice out of a third of a lemon. I got 1 tablespoon. Pour this juice over the meat.
Step 4:
Add the garlic passed through the press.
Step 5:
Add a little red hot pepper and a mixture of peppers (I don't have it spicy).
Step 6:
Mix well, spreading the marinade evenly over all the shins, and leave to marinate for 20 minutes, you can overnight.
Step 7:
Separately, pour the breadcrumbs into a plate. Add paprika to them.
Step 8:
Add turmeric - spices will give the chicken a beautiful color and a unique flavor when frying.
Step 9:
Add a little salt.
Step 10:
Mix the breadcrumbs well with the spices. We get dry breading, which you can buy in the store, but it's better to cook it yourself.
Step 11:
In a separate container, break the egg and beat it a little with a fork.
Step 12:
Now we have everything ready for the breading process!
Step 13:
Roll each shin in flour.
Step 14:
Then roll in beaten egg from all sides.
Step 15:
Roll the legs in breadcrumbs.
Step 16:
And place the paneled legs on the cutting board, preparing them for subsequent frying.
Step 17:
When all the legs are breaded, you can proceed to the next stage - frying or baking in the oven (if you, of course, chose this cooking option).
Step 18:
Put the legs in a frying pan with heated vegetable oil. There should be quite a lot of oil so that the legs are well fried.
Step 19:
Fry the chicken over medium heat under the lid for 5-7 minutes until golden brown.
Step 20:
Then flip to the other side and fry on the other side.
Step 21:
Serve hot. Enjoy your meal!
I adore chicken in any of its manifestations, and especially in this! It's impossible to stop... By the way, if you try to bake it in the oven, you will get a more dietary dish.
Use oil with a high smoking temperature for frying! Any oils are useful only until a certain temperature is reached - the point of smoking, at which the oil begins to burn and toxic substances, including carcinogens, are formed in it.
Unrefined oils, with rare exceptions, have a low smoking point. There are a lot of unfiltered organic particles in them, which quickly begin to burn.
Refined oils are more resistant to heating, and their smoking point is higher. If you are going to cook food in the oven, on a frying pan or grill, make sure that you use oil with a high smoking point. The most common of the oils with a high smoking point: refined varieties of sunflower, olive and grape.
