Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup (est.) hot red pepper sauce (recommended: Texas Pete)
- 2 cups self-rising flour
- 1 tsp ground black pepper
- 1 House seasoning (4:1:1 ratio of salt, black pepper, garlic powder)
- 1 chicken, cut into pieces
- 1 frying oil, preferably peanut oil
- 1/3 cup water
Method
- If you want to make your own self-rising flour, take 2 cups all-purpose flour and mix with 3 teaspoons of baking powder and 1 teaspoon of salt
- In a medium sized bowl, beat the eggs with the water
- Add enough hot sauce to make the egg mixture bright orange
- In another bowl, combine the flour and pepper
- Season the chicken with the house seasoning
- Dip the seasoned chicken in the egg mixture and coat well in the flour mixture
- Heat the oil to 350F in a deep pot.
- This is important for consistent results.
- (I used an infrared thermometer, but a food thermometer may be better.)
- Do not fill the pot more than halfway with oil.
- Fry the chicken in the oil until golden brown and crispy.
- Dark meat: 13-14 minutes.
- White meat: 8-10 minutes.
