This Batter Fried Chicken is made with Myrtle Creek Mill English Squarehead Wheat Flour and is perfect for a picnic or a family dinner.
Instructions:
Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces. In a bowl, mix the pieces along with the pepper, salt, garlic, paprika and set aside.
Prepare the batter in a medium bowl by combining the flour, cornstarch, baking powder and salt.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg and mix in the cold sparkling water. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix, a few lumps are okay.
Heat vegetable oil to 350 Fahrenheit in a pan deep enough to submerge the chicken pieces.
Dip each piece of seasoned chicken into the batter and allow the excess to drip off. Place battered chicken into hot oil a few pieces at a time. Avoid overcrowding.
Fry pieces for 5 - 7 minutes until golden brown and crispy with an internal temperature of 165 Fahrenheit. Use a slotted spoon to remove chicken from oil and place on a paper towel to drain excess oil.
