CRISPY FRIED CHICKEN, HOT AND SPICY FRIED CHICKEN and PAN-FRIED CHICKEN are some of the ways to fry chicken cut ups. This time, I am going to share a BREADED FRIED CHICKEN. A very easy and juicy fried chicken that you will surely make again and again. This BREADED FRIED CHICKEN recipe is best if you are planning for a children’s birthday party to be paired with my MEATY SPAGHETTI. You will surely put a smile on your kids face on each bite.

FRIED CHICKEN WITH BREAD CRUMBS

1 kilo fresh chicken, cut-up
6 tbsp. kalamansi juice
3 tbsp. salt
2 cups cooking oil
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups bread crumbs
2 eggs

Wash chicken cut-up with running water and drain.

In a large bowl, marinate chicken with kalamansi juice and salt for 1 hour.

After marinating the chicken, add flour into the chicken cut-ups, coating all chicken cut-up. This is easy when you use your hands in coating the chicken.

Put the bread crumbs on a shallow plate. Beat eggs in a separate bowl.

Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat.

Dip each chicken cut-up in egg then drop the chicken cut-up into bread crumbs. Make sure to coat chicken cut-up well.

Fry the chicken cut-up. Do with the rest of the chicken cut-up.

Make sure that chicken should be completely immersed in oil. Do not overcrowd the pan, allowing one inch space between each cut-up.

Fry chicken until golden brown and tender, turning the cut-ups, about 6-7 minutes on each side.

Use a wire mesh strainer to remove excess oil.

Serve with steaming white rice or with a pasta.
