Crispy Fried Chicken Drumsticks – This delicacy needs little to no introduction as most of us are really familiar with it, it’s crispy, it’s spicy and most of all it’s super easy to make.
Crispy Fried Chicken
NOTES:
I used peanut Oil because of its high smoke point and…well….taste and I will advise you to do the same or better still use oils like Grapeseed, Canola, Corn, Olive, Sesame seed or Sunflower.
I know there are two teams when it comes to washing or not washing your Chicken before cooking it – This is totally up to you.
Feel free to use any Chicken part of your choice as long as it is cut into small portions – When the Chicken piece is too big, it will take a longer time to cook and the outer part might become overly browned before it becomes fully cooked on the inside.

Thank you for this… Really awesome. I sometimes want to spring up some delicacies as a romantic touch for my wife sometimes… I like this, and I’d like to give it a shot… Few questions : How did you get the powdered onion, paprika pepper, chili pepper, and black pepper, how can I get them in the market?… What kind of milk did you use?
Hoping to get your speedy response
Thanks
Hi Raymond, you can get the spices at any market especially from those selling the pepper soup spice. They usually have it. You can also get it at ShopRite. I used whole milk. You can get that in ShopRite as well or simply reconstitute any powdered milk. (6 tablespoons of powdered milk to 1 cup of water and stir till the milk is totally dissolved in the water). I hope that helps?
