Zippy's Fried Chicken image

I found this recipe on the KaukauTime blog. I haven't tried it yet, but wanted to save it since I miss the taste of Zippy's! Note: The secret of Zippy's Crispy Fried Chicken is the paprika and flour. The paprika and flour will make the chicken crispy without it being overly battered. Adding a bit of cornstarch will make it even more crispier if you prefer it this way. The more paprika you add will also make the chicken darker.

Time 35m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (3 -4 lb) fresh whole broiler-fryer chickens
2 cups wheat flour
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon paprika
2 teaspoons white pepper
1 tablespoon msg (I'm not advocating for this one..you can)
2 teaspoons fresh cracked black pepper
1 pinch coarse hawaiian rock salt (or two!) or 1 pinch kosher salt (or two!)
canola oil (for deep frying)
warm water, to cover chicken

Steps:

  • Rinse and cut up chicken into parts easy for frying.
  • Drain and in colander and put in clean mixing bowl and cover with warm water.
  • Add 2 big pinches of Hawaiian rock or kosher salt to bowl to create a salt brine for the chicken.
  • Soak chicken parts for 10 minutes.
  • Drain in colander and do not rinse.
  • In another mixing bowl add dry ingredients such as flour, garlic powder, paprika, white/black pepper, and MSG.
  • Mix with wire whisk or blend in a blender to remove flour lumps.
  • Add drained chicken pieces to mixing bowl of dry ingredients.
  • Dredge chicken parts well to make sure it covers the whole piece.
  • Shake excess flour off of chicken and set aside on tray or cookie sheet while you're heating up oil.
  • Heat canola oil in wok, deep frying pan, or dedicated deep fryer with oil enough to cover chicken pieces.
  • Heat oil to 350-375°F.
  • Add chicken in 2 batches.
  • Chicken batches will cook for approximately 15mins or until golden brown all over.
  • Drain on paper towels and keep in 150°F oven to keep warm.
