STEPS
INGREDIENTS
The cast
After you have washed your chicken, add the garlic paste
The adobo
The oregano
The sazon Goya
The black pepper
And the lime juice
After the chicken has marinated take the chicken out of the fridge and bring it to room temp. Take the flour next and put it in a bowl.
Add the sazon with color
Take the chicken pieces and start dipping them In the flour
TIP: when all the chicken has been dipped in flour, add them back to the flour skin side down for 10 minutes . letting the chicken absorb the flour a lil longer makes for a crunchier crust .
After the 10 minutes I put them on the side to be fried
Turn your deep fryer to 350. When it has reached the temp. Start adding the chicken pieces .
Fry until golden brown and crunchy. Just remember dark meat takes longer to cook than white meat👌😊
Remove from oil and drain on a paper lined Dish. It is now ready to eat YESSS ..Crunchy and juicy chicken. serve with slices of lime.. Enjoy😉
