POPEYES Copycat Fried Chicken

Welcome back youtube today .

I'm gonna do my twist .

My take on some Popeye's fried chicken .

I made up a spice mix .

I put the ingredients down below or maybe on the screen .

We're gonna start off by marinating them .

I wanna get these marinated for about three hours .

I guess I clean the chicken , let it drain some .

We're just gonna rub that in .

Get it coded everywhere everywhere and it's just normal spices , salt , pepper , garlic , onion , cayenne , paprika , little MS G , some accent .

All right .

We're gonna let this sit three hours .

We'll be back to fry later after three hours in the fridge .

We're ready for the next step .

Gonna make a dry batter .

I'm gonna do a cup of flour , half a cup of corn starch and have a teaspoon baking powder .

We wanna mix that up .

I'm gonna dredge the marinated chicken in there .

You start off with the legs .

You just put a light coat on these , shake off any excess , lay him out to dry .

It's gonna give us a good crispy skin .

All right , I'm gonna let those dry and I'll get the oil heating up .

I've got the oil heating up to 3 50 .

I'm gonna start on the dry better .

I want three cups of flour .

Damn .

Another half cup of corn starch in here .

It's about half a cup .

There you go .

Take a tablespoon are two teaspoons of that season .

Them add that to the batter .

Mix that up .

Set that aside .

I'm gonna work on a wet better .

Going in two eggs .

No shells , no shells .

One cup of flour .

I want two more teaspoons of that seasoning and another teaspoon of paprika .

Last but not least I'm gonna add some club supper .

You see that club soda , club soda .

Be careful when you open this really ?

One cup .

Oh .

Mix that in real good .

Get out the lumps right now .

It's time to better gonna do wet batter .

Make sure you drain it good .

Drain up in the excess into the flour .

Flip that over .

Get that everything covered in flour .

Ok ?

All right .

Let me finish these up .

We'll get to the stove and start frying them .

Got them done .

Time to fry .

We're gonna take a wooden spoon , put it in the pot and see if it bubbles .

Oh , yeah , it's bubbling .

All is hot enough to go .

It should be about 3 50 .

Don't crowd Japan .

I'm gonna do these in two batches , three each .

All right , kids .

Be careful with this at home .

Don't let it overflow .

It burn the house down .

Should be 12 minutes .

Start a timer and walk away .

We'll be back in five minutes to flip it .

I'm just joking about the walk away .

You need to watch the show , especially proudly .

Just be careful .

Yeah .

There we go , guys .

Look at that crust on there .

Oh , yeah .

I'm gonna let these cool about 10 minutes .

Let him finish cooking time for the wings .

All right .

I wanna get all these coated .

Then we're gonna dip them in there .

Whit butter .

Now we're gonna let this sit this time in the dredge .

See them off .

Make sure you see them off .

I'm gonna do this in a batch of four .

I think four will fit in that pot .

We're gonna use the rest of this flour that I did in the first time .

I'm gonna use that little flipping fry the lid on there .

Check them up , get them coated .

All right .

There we go .

Gonna head to the stove and get these fried up .

Thank you .

Yes .

Yeah .

Yes .

All right .

Time to get some samples going on right here .

Check out that fried chicken game .

Look at that skin .

See what we got tender .

Oh , look at that juice .

That is what you want .

Air and fried chicken .

Crush is not too thick .
