Garlic powder is a great seasoning for fried chicken because it adds a delicious, savory flavor that complements the crispy texture of the chicken.
Here's a simple recipe for using garlic powder seasoning for fried chicken:
Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts or 8-10 chicken drumsticks
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
2 eggs
1/4 cup milk
Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions:
In a large bowl, mix together the flour, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, paprika, and cayenne pepper (if using).
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or deep fryer over medium-high heat.
Dip each chicken piece in the egg mixture, then dredge it in the flour mixture, making sure it's coated evenly.
Carefully place the chicken in the hot oil and fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes for drumsticks and 10-12 minutes for chicken breasts, flipping occasionally.
Remove the chicken from the oil using a slotted spoon or tongs and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serve the garlic powder seasoned fried chicken hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
This recipe can be adjusted to suit your personal taste preferences. You can also use other seasonings such as onion powder or dried herbs in addition to garlic powder. Enjoy your crispy and flavorful garlic powder seasoned fried chicken!
