Kentucky Fried Chicken in the Air Fryer - KFC Copycat Recipe
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 июн 2024
- Kentucky Fried Chicken is the food of the good obviously, but cooking fried chicken at home stinks the place out, so using the air fryer which keep the smells to a minimum is a right bonus. Also it's marginally healthier, but not much if at all. In this recipe I feel like 1) i've cracked the recipe and 2) the best method of cooking it in air fryer.

1:38 Air Fryer KFC Recipe
Hey guys if you would like to see a KFC fillet burger done in the air fryer along with some strips, check out my channel as i've just uploaded a video on that. Thanks for watching!
Your herbs and spices are perfect, I use pork rindd for the crust, trying to keep carbs down, but it was so so good!
I would like to see some strips but I don't think RUclips is appropriate for that, try onlyfans or jerkmate.
why use egg? I don't think I would like the taste w/egg. We just use flour and seasoning
@@trevordylan9130
You don't taste the egg, it's only for the dry ingredients to adhere on the chicken skin. Otherwise the dry ingredients will come off with the chicken fat.
A good tip..
Pack the coating on and hold it down on the chicken so it really sticks to the chicken and the egg will absorb the spices better than just lightly coating the chicken.. as an ex chicken cook at KFC.. 7 pats per side.. and don't be afraid to be firm either.
Since we don’t have a KFC in our town we have to travel to near bye Leeds, which means that we only have KFC when I’m coming home from Leeds which is not very often.
Thank you for publishing this video, so now I can cook Southern Fried Chicken from home. For that reason, I decided to subscribe
If you are in the UK you can get "Graces Perfect blend - Strong Blend" which is the actual KFC recipe (Irish KFC franchise that had a falling out with Colonel Sanders and refused to stop selling the breading) and in the US "Marion Kay Spices - Chicken Seasoning 99-X"
That "Graces Perfect blend" is the one let me tell you LOL
Glad to have this video pop up! Looks amazing. I've been looking for a recipe like this since I bought my air fryer months ago. Thanks for sharing and now time to subscribe 😊
Just made this for dinner. Followed your instructions pretty closely.
I found 200 C (390 F) was a bit too hot . The breading got a little darker than I would have thought perfect.
It was still very good. and the whole chicken cost 5 bucks. So, good deal. But, boy, it was a messy kitchen when I was done.
Thank you for posting this.
Thanks for the recipe… it looks so easy to follow the instructions and looks delicious. I’ll try this tonight
Thank you for this recipe, I can't wait to try it!
Just got an air-fryer as a house warming gift. I am really impressed with the many results.
Absolutely gonna try this!!!!!! Big thank you👌
Hope you enjoy
I'm watching this at 9:30 am and I want to prepare it right now !
Thanks a lot.
Made this last night. Was an instant hit! Delicious. Thank you.
sometimes you need to forget healthy so that you can get a great taste, another fantastic recipe thankyou
Love this video! I'm going Asda right now to buy some chicken! Thank you Leigh!
We just made this and it came out SO JUICY and SO TASTY!!! Thankyou
Glad you liked it!!
That looks so yummy and delicious! The way you prepared is so easy..👍Thanks for sharing . ❤keep going ❤💕Stay Blessed and stay connected.!😍
Definitely trying this as my go to special cook for this week!. Love my airfryer. Thanks for video
Did you do it?? I just got my air fryer and will try this out myself soon!
@@hamie63_m hi there. I definately did try it but i made a mistake with the spices🥴. I used garlic powder instead of garlic salt and it really needs celery salt too...no normal salt as well tho. The chicken turned out great but without the salt to bring the best out of the other herbs n spices, wasnt kfc...just nice airfryed chicken pieces. You gota tey it tho, remember to add oil when needed, an double dip bits in egg, i forgot an dipped once, good luk. Its pretty straight forward...experiment abit. Check out other utube vids toi. Kfc chick rocks!...especially with airfryer
This seems like a great idea. Gonna try this ASAP!
Thankyou so much, always wondered how to make KFC tasting chicken, Looks amazing, definitely going to try this.....
Thank you and keep enjoying life and have a bless day from Connecticut
It is so easy quick and cheap. I like the green herbs used
That’s 3 of your 5 a day 👍
@@BasherBrookes oh of course!
I made this recipe; you got the herbs and spices right on the money my friend!! Thank you again, I'm about to make it again. So good!! excellent job!
Nice one Chris!
Thank you, Looks delicious
will definitely try this
So many comments on the authenticity of your recipe here,all I can say is I personally don't think KFC is as good as it was so I'm definitely going to try this! Many thanks it looked lush!!!👍
Defo not the same I had it a couple weeks ago for the first time in years. It used to have a more crunchy crumbley coating. Not so good at all.
I love the way you are enjoying your own cooking. You have good cooking skills. Thank you for helping us. 😁
USA
Thanks Lorraine, really appreciate it! Enjoy the day.
So easy and looks delicious. All of the spices used are on hand so will try your version with oil. I love your measuring technique! Ballpark measurements are my favorite.
👏 Well done brother. I applaud you for using a non-aerosol spray on the teflon pan. And rubber coated tongs, as well. However may I suggest that you try the 2 additional secrets to southern fried chicken. 1) Buttermilk (Soak for a min. 1 hour. Overnight is best) Celery salt. Great job.Love your laid back approach.
Thank You I am trying it tomorrow and I have some buttermilk and celery salt
I like the food
Well done, I am trying that right now.
I've been using a short cut. Never eaten KFC so don't know if it's even close. All I use on the chicken and in the flour are equal parts of Old Bay (18 herbs and spices!!) and McCormicks rotisserie chicken seasoning. Tasty.
i hate old bay. salty. KFC doesn't taste like that just so you know. I used to work for them now im in the Deli of another place where i cook chicken
Looks fantastic!!!
thank you - I'm going to try this today but with wings
I'll try this.
I recently purchased a Ninja air fryer and am looking forward to christening it using this recipe. Good fried chicken is clearly one of my favorite foods. Nice video! Ty
Hello Arnie Silverberg, let me know how you like your Ninja air fryer. I'm thinking about purchasing one.
@@sonyaforeman7844 Hey- Easy to use and clean. A bit small so for some dishes so you might need to cook in two batches. I also used a “paper protector basket insert” for easier clean up. Not a good addition.
Wow - Thank You
made this today mate, absolutely phenomenal, big thumbs up
Nice one! 👍
Pie plates are excellent for breading. (one for wet and one for dry).
That looks absolutely fantastic and tasty 😋
Looks good fella gonna try that.
I use crushed cornflakes in my mix. Absolutely delicious
Favorite chicken when travel to US ; missing it past few years; will try this recipe definitely. If I may, in your recipe list, kindly include the measurements for the spices, for new cooks. thank you
Looks Delish✨
looks yummy!!!
I'm a newbie with the airfryer..always looking for new recipes 😋 subbed 👍
You have a new subbie 🙋. I liked the way you put all the ingredients on the counter prior to cooking. Now all I have to do is take a pic & go to the supermarket to buy the ingredients. You also have a great voice. Looking forward to seeing more videos 😋
Thank you so much!
Look delish!
Hi there I will be trying this. I did KFC the other day and it was terrible 😫 it went in the bin so hopefully yours KFC will be fantastic thanks for the video
Cooking this version again tonight lol the hubby loves it, I did sub salt for garlic salt, and whacked a few chilli flakes it tonight, see how that turns out, thankies
Sounds great!
That's a Great and tasty looking recipe!
Wow that looks delicious ❤❤❤❤
Thank you 😋
I'm making this today! Good video. New subscriber
Thanks for subbing! & Watching!
Looks great, good idea not using basket, have you tried buttermilk marinade and MSG in coating?
Fantastic.
I just made it and….WOW!!!….delicious!! The only thing you missed was how much flour you’re starting with. 1 cup? 2cups? Thanks mate and cheers.👍🏾
I have a feeling that your 200 degrees is Celsius...that will translate to approx 390 Fahrenheit. Chicken wont air fry at 200 degrees Fahrenheit. Just making an assumption. Great video.
Love KFC but there isn't one where I live so I must give this a go. Thanks for the tips
Superb Recipe & Great Video !
Thank you so much,cant wait to try it!!!👍🙏
Hope you like it!
Thanks mate, now I'm f-ing famished! I will try it your way, because it looked like a great result. I'm new to airfryers but I'm obsessed with making good fried chicken. KFC is too expensive for me.
Well done! Will try it tonight Your soothing voice helped me watch the entire video and so glad I did! Sometimes I hear an awful squeaky voice and hit the stop button haha THANKS!!
Thanks Leigh. Just subscribed. Cheers
Looks great 😋😋
Thank you 😋
Adding celery salt gives it the extra authentic dimension.👌
Just subscribed love my ninja all in one always want good air f recipes thanks Leigh
Thanks for subbing!
Great video fella

I will definitely try this recipe. I like the presentation of your recipe. Keep on mking such beautiful recipe. I will definitely watch your video. .✅ Wishing you success from #mauryankitchen team ❤️ INDIA
thanks
wow
If you like the video please subscribe and check out the channel. Anything you'd like to see, let me know by replying.
Looks great and subscribed - This was one of the first things i tried in the air fryer and was surprised how excellent the results were - very crispy when double dipped and doesn't dry out at all unlike the oven - prefer it to KFC (which doesn't taste how it used to) and is a lot healthier due to little/no oil used and being in control of the salt / other ingredients
I know this is an old post but may I ask have you tried it with bone in breasts?
@@c.michellesparks2925 Yes, great results all round
@@matthew6994 Excellent. Thanks!
You smashed it mate
Yummy ty
Subscribed. Even if this didn’t taste like KFC, it looks like you really know how to get that chicken breaded. I’m sure this would be good on onion rings, even fish too.
Good idea. Haven't had onion rings for ages. KFC onion rings, sounds good!
Are you using centigrade for cook temp?
We gave this a whirl tonight. Did not go that well as far as the KFC flavor. The flavor was sort of there....... maybe. It was our first go at chicken in the air fryer. It was very tasty. Next time I will use the tray at the bottom of the Ninja so the chicken isn't sitting in the oil. I am also going to double and triple the seasonings placed in the flour.
Though im from the US, i kmew what a waffle was instantly in context😂
Excellent video! New subscriber 💙
Awesome! Thank you!
Good job mate
Apparently "Celery Salt" is one of the ingredients in the secret recipe. Adds another dimension to the flavour.
Thanks for the tip!
delicious
Bl**dy amazing Leigh and yes I would have been the same with my vocabulary as you looool
Popeyes! It's luziana fast! Looks great and gonna try this with my newbie Fryer....
Looks good mate.
Thanks 👍
Looks really tasty, everyone seems to use some sort of flour, isn’t this where the crisping comes from?
I just started cooking, love your videos. Subscribed and upvoted. If you can teach us how to make healthy foods by air fryer that will be perfect.
Enjoy your new cooking journey!
My American ways had me stuck on the pronunciation of oregano, but Italians say it best! I will relax now! It would be good to season the chicken first as well as the coating. Isn't it a bit dangerous to put so much oil in the Air Fryer? Thanks for sharing!
Looks mouth watering 😍 guess what's going on my shopping list this weekend 😍 can't wait to try it. Thank you for uploading
Hope you enjoy
Hi Leigh, I've just got an Air Fryer and just found your YT channel. From what I've seen it seems like very sensible information. In this video did you remove the grill at the bottom of the pan when you put the KFC style chicken into it?
Lovely recipe very tasty thank you Leigh. Why does almost everybody in adverts, and loads more programs on media have to wave their hands about like a demented windmill, I can understand very well without all that. Thanks again.
It’s part of utube policy to have adds on your platform
Nice
I love your video
Top stuff. And you really meant it when you said: "Get your little whisk".
True story. That little whisk came in one of those gift sets you get at Christmas where there is a mug, a miniature bottle of Baileys and a sachet of hot chocolate 🤣 Proper handy though!
@@letscookwithleigh I love it!
That looks fantastic... Thanks for sharing the video.. KFC is my favorite I can't wait to try this tonight..
well done
Excellent, easy looking Leigh. I've seen others marinading in buttermilk overnight. Is it worth doing?
It is best to coat the chicken in buttermilk either 30 minutes before you coat it in the seasoned flour or overnight to make it more tender
Which air fryer can heat more tha 200 degrees Celsius- o am using Germanica it’s max heat is 200 degrees Celsius
on the menu tomorrow
Yup. But is it centigrade or farenheit? I have already figured it out! Would have been nice
Could you use strips of chicken,it looks absolutely delicious,I really have to try it,thank you for an awesome recipe,x
Yeah for sure. I recorded a new video making a fillet burger using a similar recipe and i had left overs to make strips. The video should be coming soon once I get round to editing it :) Subscribe to be notified of it. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for sharing the tutorial. Just tried it and it was delicious ❤. I’m not sure what spray oil you use but be careful if it is the frylight/ 1 cal sprays as that destroyed the inside of my ninja airfryer over time. I now just use oil in an empty spray bottle
Victoria, yeah I use Frylight. Which one have you been using that caused a problem? I use the sunflower oil one. Haven't noticed any major issues yet. The base of the tray has deteriorated slightly, but I put that down to me burning something in it earlier in the year and letting it dry solid before attempting to clean it 😄 and needing to give it a good scrub. Did you put the regular oil in the frylight spray bottle? Thanks for the comment.
@@letscookwithleigh
It was the fry light sunflower oil spray. For the first 8 months or so it was fine but after that the material started deteriorating and when I looked up why that could be online quite a few people had reported the same issue after using the fry light. I bought a couple of empty cooking spray bottle from wilko’s and put regular sunflower oil in one and garlic oil in another and just use those now instead and have had no issues so far.
Looks devastating man! I’m definitely making this next week! Damn! 😂
In the end I couldn't wait more than a day to try this recipe and made it the very next day. OMG! This was amazing! 😛😋😛😎
Awesome news!! Thanks for trying it.
