Does anyone know how to fry chicken and season it like Kentucky Fried.I love the taste of it and can't figure out what seasoning they add.Our local supermarket makes great fried chicken to it's not quiet the same .But very close.What seasoning do you use?
Hey Spider...check out recipezaar.com and see if they have a copycat recipe, they have a lot of them. I may have even come upon the KFC recipe for their chicken. I know that I have used the copycat recipe for the coleslaw from there.
I found this recipe in a copykat cookbook someone sent me.
KFC Original Fried Chicken
2−3 pounds cut−up chicken pieces
1 Quart Water
3 tablespoons Salt (for soaking)
1 cup milk
1 egg, beaten
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon Accent (MSG)
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
Soybean Oil (no substitutions) for frying
Allow chicken to soak in salted water for a half hour.
Mix egg and milk in a bowl. Mix flour, Accent, salt, and pepper
in another bowl. Preheat deep fryer to 350F, or place 3/4 inch
oil in a skillet set on medium.
Dry chicken with paper towels. Dredge in flour mixture, place in
milk/eggs, and then back to flour mixture. Do this one piece at
a time making sure that there is total coverage over entire
surface of chicken in each step.
KFC uses pressure cookers to fry chicken, which is risky to do
at home. If you are using a deep fryer, fry a few pieces at a
time for about 20 minutes, covered, turning occasionally.
Likewise, if pan frying, cook, covered, turning occasionally
for about 30 minutes. As always with chicken, check the middle
of a large piece to check for doneness.
Allow to drain on paper towels when cooking is completed.

Last night whuile I was looking for Curbies Kraut and Beer cake , I ran across almost the same recipe and had intended to bring it to post but forgot it. I will compare them and if there is a difference I'll post it.
