6-8 cups shortening
1 egg, beaten
1 cup milk
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon white pepper
3/4 teaspoon Cayenne 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. Prehea
t the shortening in a deep-fryer to 350 degrees. Combine the
beaten egg and milk in a medium bowl. In another medium bow
l, combine the remaining coating ingredients When the chicke
n has marinated, transfer each piece to paper towels so that
excess liquid can drain off. Working with one piece at a ti
me, dip in egg and milk then coat the chicken with the dry f
lour mixture, coated very generously. Stack the chicken on a
plate or cookie sheet until each piece has been coated. Dro
p the chicken, one piece at a time into the hot shortening.
Fry half of the chicken at a time (4 pieces) for 12-15 minut
es, 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 tow
els to drain for about 5 minutes before eating.
The Colonel used to sale chicken nuggets that were tasty but
he taught why not prepare fresh chicken strips of all white
meat and that is how the Colonel’s Crispy Strips were
born. You will notice it is the same as the Extra Crispy.
