Ingredients:
- 3 1/2 pounds - Raw chicken
- 1 teaspoons - Salt
- 3/4 - Chicken Bouillon Powder

Directions:
1. Firstly, place chicken in a large bowl. Then seasoned with salt followed by all the other
marinate ingredients- salt, chicken bouillon, garlic, ginger, paprika, white pepper, curry powder,
hot sauce and thyme.

4. When ready to fry add about 2 Tablespoons of milk to the flour mixture- thoroughly mix using
your fingers. Then dredge the chicken in the flour mixture, shaking any excess flour. You may
use a zip lock bag for this process. Set aside for about 15 minutes.
5. Heat oil in a deep fryer or cast iron skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Temperature will
drop once you add chicken.
6. Using a thong place chicken carefully and slowly place the chicken in the hot oil work in
batches. Do not over crowd the skillet .Fry the chicken until golden brown, turning once, 10 to
20 minutes, depending on the size of the pieces. Chicken is done when it is no longer pink
inside and its juices run clear. You may do a test by piercing chicken with fork.
7. Drain the chicken on paper towels set on a wire rack.
8. Finally, repeat with remaining chicken pieces; let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
