Description
Fried chicken on a stick is a delightful twist on the classic fried chicken, featuring tender, juicy pieces of chicken coated in a crispy, golden crust, all skewered for easy eating.
Ingredients
- Chicken Breast: 500 grams, cut into bite-sized pieces
- Skewers: 10-12 skewers, preferably soaked in water for 30 minutes if they’re wooden
- All-Purpose Flour: 1 cup
- Eggs: 2, beaten
- Breadcrumbs: 1 cup, preferably panko
- Seasoning: Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika to taste
- Oil for Frying: Enough for deep frying (about 2-3 cups)
Instructions
- Prepare the chicken by cutting it into bite-sized pieces and marinating with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika for 15-20 minutes.
- Set up a breading station with three shallow dishes for flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs.
- Coat each piece of marinated chicken in flour, then dip in eggs, and finally roll in breadcrumbs.
- Skewer the breaded chicken pieces onto the soaked skewers.
- Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat and fry the skewers for about 4-5 minutes until golden brown.
- Remove the skewers from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Notes
- For a healthier option, consider baking the chicken at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes.
- Experiment with different marinades and coatings for unique flavors.
