Garlic Fried Chicken Recipe
Crispy, juicy, savory garlic fried chicken is finger-licking good, AND it's gluten-free.
Batter:
½ cup of Corn Starch
1 cup of Rice Flour
2 Eggs
⅓ cup of Soda Water (COLD)
2 tsp of Garlic Powder
1.5 tsp of Paprika
2 tsp of Chili Powder (optional)
1 tbsp of Chicken Powder (optional)
Salt & Pepper
½ cup of Corn Starch
1 cup of Rice Flour
2 Eggs
⅓ cup of Soda Water (COLD)
2 tsp of Garlic Powder
1.5 tsp of Paprika
2 tsp of Chili Powder (optional)
1 tbsp of Chicken Powder (optional)
Salt & Pepper
- Optional: cut a slit along the bone of the chicken thigh to open up the chicken, this will help the chicken fry more evenly and the chicken to not curl up.
- Marinate the chicken with soy sauce, minced garlic, garlic powder, black pepper, and Chinese cooking wine for at least 20 minutes or overnight.
- To prepare the batter, mix corn starch, rice flour, eggs, garlic powder, paprika, chili powder, chicken powder, season with salt and pepper, and ice-cold soda water.
- Add in the chicken and let it rest for 5-10 minutes.
- In a pan, add in oil (I am using grapeseed oil), and bring it to 150 C. Add the chicken legs into the oil and fry for 6-7 minutes.
- Remove the chicken, increase the heat to 180 C and fry for another 2-3 minutes or until crispy and golden brown.
