Steps:
- NOTES: FOR AUTHENTIC RESULTS, PREPARE RECIPE EXACTLY AS DIRECTED. MSG (ACCENT SEASONING) IS IN THE ACTUAL ORIGINAL RECIPE, BUT MAY BE OMITTED IF NECESSARY. EGG WHITE POWDER IS SOLD IN HEALTH FOOD STORES. YOU MAY SUBSTITUTE EGG WHITE POWDER WITH CORNSTARCH. FINELY GRIND REQUIRED HERBS AND SPICES SEPARATELY IN A CLEAN SPICE MILL OR COFFEE GRINDER. USE A PEPPER MILL TO MEDIUM-GRIND TELLICHERRY PEPPERCORNS. I RECOMMEND MCCORMICK BRAND TELLICHERRY BLACK PEPPER AND GROUND GINGER, SPICE ISLANDS BRAND GROUND SAGE AND CARDAMOM, SPICE APPEAL BRAND GROUND SAVORY, AND WILLIAMS-SONOMA BRAND GROUND TAHITIAN VANILLA BEAN.
- MEASURE the BASE MIXTURE and 11 SECRET HERBS AND SPICES into a large re-sealable container (this includes the prepared BARBECUE SEASONING recipe).
- BREAK up any clumps (and dry milk powder) using the back of a spoon.
- SEAL the container.
- SHAKE container to mix well.
- STORE container sealed and store in a cool dry place.
- WHEN ready to use, measure 1/2 level cup of this mixture plus 2 cups unbleached breading flour into a large re-sealable container.
- SEAL the container with flour and seasoning; SHAKE well until thoroughly combined.
- FOLLOW link to Recipe #393795 for complete brining, preparation and frying instructions (skipping its STEP #3 since you've already done this).
- ENJOY!

KFC COPYCAT FRIED CHICKEN: BETTER THAN THE COLONEL'S RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:
- Mix dry ingredients in large bowl. Set aside. Put chicken and buttermilk in two large plastic Ziploc bags or a flat dish and marinate in the refrigerator for at least two hours, turning every 30 minutes. This tenderizes the meat as well as removes any blood. When ready to cook, remove chicken pieces from buttermilk, shake off excess liquid. Toss with dry ingredients. The chicken should be lightly covered, but it's okay if there are a few missed spots. You can also shake chicken with the dry ingredients in a large Ziploc bag. Fill a large, heavy bottomed skillet or deep pot with enough oil to cover halfway up the largest piece of chicken. Heat oil to 325-350 degrees. If you don't have a cooking thermometer, wait for small bubbles to form. Adjust heat so the oil bubbles are steady but not too rapid. Working in two or more batches, place the coated chicken in the hot oil. After about eight minutes, the chicken will be golden brown underneath. Turn over once and cook for an additional eight minutes or until nicely browned on both sides. The cooking process will agitate the pieces slightly, so you don't need to shift them around in the pan. After frying, place chicken on a metal sheet tray covered in a paper towel and transfer to 200-degree oven to keep warm until serving. The chicken will stay moist for up to an hour.

Tips:
- Use Fresh Chicken: Fresh chicken is more flavorful and juicy than frozen chicken. If using frozen chicken, be sure to thaw it completely before cooking.
- Marinate the Chicken: Marinating the chicken in a mixture of spices and herbs will help to flavor it and keep it moist. You can marinate the chicken for up to 24 hours, but even a few hours will make a difference.
- Use a Cast Iron Skillet: A cast iron skillet is the best choice for cooking Jamaican KFC chicken because it distributes heat evenly and helps to create a crispy crust.
- Fry the Chicken in Hot Oil: The oil should be hot enough to sizzle when the chicken is added. This will help to create a crispy crust and prevent the chicken from sticking to the pan.
- Don't Overcrowd the Skillet: Don't overcrowd the skillet with chicken pieces. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Cook the Chicken Until Golden Brown: Cook the chicken until it is golden brown on all sides. This will ensure that it is cooked through.
- Serve the Chicken with Jamaican Gravy: Jamaican gravy is the perfect accompaniment to Jamaican KFC chicken. It is made with a combination of spices and herbs and is very flavorful.
