Crispy Zippy’s-Style Fried Chicken Recipe

    Made this using drumsticks. Batter/coating came out GREAT following recipe but though I brined it 10mins per instructions before cooking, the meat was bland (I have picky eaters who dont like the skin so the meat has to have flavor for sure) so moving forward will definitely brine w more hawn salt and for at least an hour. The batter though, was On Point!

    Zippy’s Fried Chicken, 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 , Made this using drumsticks Batter/coating came out GREAT following recipe but though I brined it 10mins per instructions before cooking, the meat was bland (I have picky eaters who dont like the skin so the meat has to have flavor for sure) so moving forward will definitely brine w more hawn salt and for at least an hour The batter though, was On Point!, Mahalo for sharing ~_~* It was easy to make, & delightfully delicious I live in Europe so to have my hawaiian zippy’s fried chicked was a bonus aloha nui loa
