Now once you try this out, I’d have you coming back for more. This is an easy chicken recipe I’ve perfected over time for the perfect execution in your kitchen. There’s nothing as homely as the aroma of Crispy fried chicken in the morning. For today’s recipe, I’d be using a Special type of broiler chicken from “Dennys free range Farm”. They rear one of the best chickens I’ve ever tasted for the Best chicken recipes. Tried it out during the preparation of my Christmas fried chicken with chicken stock and I got hooked :D.
• Serves: 6
• Region: Nigeria, Worldwide
Marinating the chicken
Step 1: Wash the chicken breasts thoroughly with clean water
Step 2: Slice the chicken breasts into strips of about 10 and place them in the re-sealable plastic bag
Step 3: Add the Salt, Hot Sauce, Seasoning and Herbs into the plastic bag with chicken stripes.
Step 4: Seal and mix to combine all the ingredients. (The water in the bag is from the washed chicken. It actually aids in the absorption process). Once combined, place in the refrigerator or counter top and let it sit for about two hours. By the time it is brought out, the chicken must have absorbed most of the liquid.
Coating the chicken
Step 1: In the second re-sealable bag, pour in the wheat flour and add salt
Step 2: Drop each chicken strip into the plastic bag of flour and shake till it coats every part of the chicken.
Frying the coated chicken
Step 1: Heat the Soya oil in a frying pan till it gets really hot
Step 2: Gently drop each coated chicken into the hot oil and leave to fry on both sides till it turns golden brown
Step 3: Remove from the oil and leave to drain on a paper towel
Kitchen Note:
*A healthier alternative would be to bake this instead of frying

Don't I need to cook d chicken and add sesaon,salt and tyme?
You don't need to cook the chicken before frying. The Marinating process as shown above helps the chicken in the absorption of the seasonings and herbs.
Will definitely try this out this weekend. Thanks Dobby, you just brought funky and variety into my kitchen
You are most welcome onayimi 🙂
i love ur blog……..am so starting to add alot of ur recipes to my diet…
Thanks deevalycious 🙂
Tanks alot,been wanting to get this recipe.Must i use wheat flour or can i use regular baking flour?
Wheat flour is the regular baking flour popularly known as all purpose flour. This shouldn't be mistaken for Wheatmeal (Used mostly as "Swallow") which is wholemeal flour (produced from the entire grain including the bran,endosperm & germ unlike wheat flour which is produced from the endosperm).
You †ђε best
Thanks teen chef 🙂

Hi dobby, great job u' r doing….I tried dis but ended up wit a half done chicken. Pls where did I go wrong???
Hi hernu,
Sorry about the half done chicken. To get perfectly done fried crispy chicken, you'd need to deep fry in oil. you could use a deep fryer, or pot for perfect result.
Dear dobby,person go burst ooooooo!
lol! hope that's allowed 🙂
