Mga idol, since newb lang po ako sa larangan ng exotic pets, wala po ako mabigay na tip regarding petkeeping. And since I'm efficient when it comes to cooking, share ko lang po mga ito, credits from the websites where i got these recipes, I actually modified it kasi may mga ingredients na di natin karaniwang makikita from our local supermart
KFC "Original" Recipe[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]1 whole frying chicken, cut up
8 cups cooking oil for deep fryer,
around 2-3 cups for pan frying
Coating:
1 egg, beaten
1 cup milk
2 cups all purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoon pepper
3/4 teaspoon MSG
1/8 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/8 teaspoon Baking Powder
Trim any excess skin and fat from the chicken pieces. Preheat the shortening in a deep;fryer to 350 degrees. Combine the beaten egg and milk in a medium bowl.
In another medium bowl, combine the remaining coating ingredients (flour, salt, pepper and MSG). When the chicken has marinated, transfer each piece to paper towels so that excess liquid can drain off. Working with one piece at a time, first dip in egg and milk then coat the chicken with the dry flour mixture, then the egg and milk mixture again, and then back into the flour. Be sure that each piece is coated very generously. Stack the chicken on a plate or cookie sheet until each piece has been coated. Drop the chicken, one piece at a time into the hot shortening. Fry half of the chicken at a time (4 pieces) for ;15 minutes, or until it is golden brown.
You should be sure to stir the chicken around halfway through the cooking time so that each piece cooks evenly. Remove the chicken to a rack or towels to drain for about 5 minutes before eating.
