Cook Time: 40 mins
Ingredients
- Servings: 2
- 500 g skinless chicken breasts
- vegetable oil (for deep frying)
- 4 cups water
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon msg
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 cup milk
- 2 cups plain flour
- 3 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1 1/2 tablespoons paprika
- 1 tablespoon mexican chili powder
- 1 teaspoon msg (isn't really important it just adds extra flavour)
Recipe
- 1 trim any excess skin or fat from the chicken breasts.
- 2 slice the chicken breasts into nice size strips (approximately 1/2 inch x 3-4 inches).
- 3 combine the water, salt and msg for the marinade in a large bowl and let it sit and marinate for 20 minutes.
- 4 turn the strips once while they are marinating.
- 5 combine the beaten egg and milk and a bit of pepper in a medium size bowl.
- 6 in a small plastic bag combine the remaining ingredients (flour, salt, pepper, paprika, mexican chili and msg) and shake.
- 7 at this time you can start to preheat the oil in a deep-fryer to 220°c.
- 8 when the chicken has been marinating for 20 minutes, transfer each piece to paper towels so that excess liquid can drain off.
- 9 using about ten strips at once, place the chicken in the bag with the flouer and shake the bag until the strips of chicken are coated.
- 10 place them on a plate.
- 11 once they have been coated with the flour mixture dip them in the egg and milk mixture individually and them back into the bag for another shake.
- 12 be sure to try and get as much coating on each strip.
- 13 if you wish you can coat them again if you want a thicker coating.
- 14 drop the strips, 5-6 at a time into the hot oil.
- 15 they should only take a couple of minutes depending on how you like your chicken.
- 16 be sure to stir when frying so the strips don't stick together.
- 17 remove the chicken from the oil and allow them to drain on paper towels for a couple of minutes.
- 18 enjoy your homemade takeaway!
