Chef Tips

Use the recommended marinade ratio for consistent batch preparation. Dredge the chicken in flour, dip in water, then dredge again to create a crisp, craggy coating.

Fry until golden and crunchy outside, with tender, juicy meat inside. The lively heat and fragrant spices deliver dependable flavor, helping busy kitchens serve quality fried chicken efficiently.
