Today on The Stay At Home Chef
I'm showing you how to make
Secret Ingredient Restaurant Style Fried Chicken.
My friend, Chad Pritchard, is an award winning chef
and he recently launched a new venture called
Love Me Tenders
which serves up the most amazing fried chicken
that comes with a secret ingredient.
You will never guess what it is!
I'm going to show you how to make
their recipe with you here today.
It starts with some chicken breasts.
You want to season both sides of the chicken breasts
with some cajun seasoning mix.
I like how much flavor cajun seasoning has in it.
So I'll rub it in
and flip it over and do the other side as well.
You can use whatever spice rub you'd like with this
I just recommend that you use a bold spice mix
like cajun seasoning because it will really shine through.
Next we're going to set up our dipping stations
and I like to use little 9 inch cake pans for this,
but you don't have to do that.
You can just use any shallow dish.
We're going to set up the first thing which is our breading
which is actually cornstarch.
You'll need 1 cup of cornstarch for this.
Just sprinkle it into the pan
and then I like to give it a little shake to get it all even,
Now a lot of times you use something like flour
but with cornstarch it provides a stickier surface
and it also happens to be gluten free!
So if you have any gluten free family members or friends
or whatever, this fried chicken is safe for them too.
Next, in another shallow dish you'll need to pour in
2 cups of water
and 2 eggs
and then whisk these together.
Now, in our last shallow pan we'll need our secret ingredient.
And you'll never guess what it is.
It's actually Captain Crunch.
You want the regular kind, not the peanut butter kind
or the one with the berries, or Oops All Berries, or anything, just regular Captain Crunch.
Trust me, this is really good.
I'm going to pour about 2 cups of this cereal
into a food processor and then
I'm going to pulse it until it turns into dust.
Pour this into your last shallow pan and we're
ready to start putting our chicken together,
First you coat your chicken with that cornstarch.
Then you dip it into the egg and water mixture
but you want to do that kind of on the fast side
And then finally we'll coat it in that Captain Crunch Mixture.
And then just place it onto a wire rack where
It will dry for a few minutes.
Repeat this process with all of your remaining chicken.
You'll want to let it sit and dry on the rack
for about 10 minutes before frying it.
In the meantime get a large pot of oil heating up
to about 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Go ahead and put your chicken right into that hot oil
and fry it in batches.
You want to cook the chicken until the outside is
golden brown and the inside reaches a temperature
of 165 degrees Fahrenheit
This will take somewhere between 7 and 10 minutes
depending on how hot your oil is.
I like to flip it over halfway through cooking
just so it doesn't brown too much on the bottom.
Once it's done, simple remove it from the oil
and place it on a paper towel lined plate to cool.
And then, you're ready to eat!
The coating on this chicken is seriously to die for!
