kentucky fried chicken

I always wondered that too, and I remember seeing on a show when I was younger home versions of restaurant and fast food recipies, so I went searching and found some. Here is the one that I use, and it is as close as I can find and similar taste. Hope ya like it:) FRIED CHICKEN (LIKE KFC) 2 eggs, beaten 1 1/2 cups milk 1 cup flour 3/4 cup fine bread crumbs 1 tsp. Knorr chicken bouillon 1/2 tsp. salt 1/2 tsp. garlic powder (not salt) 1/4 tsp. onion powder (not salt) 1/2 tsp. paprika 1/3 tsp. Bell Seasoning 1 tbsp. freshly chopped parsley 2 large cloves garlic, minced 1/2 tsp. soy sauce 2 tsp. black pepper 1 tbsp. Wondra flour 1/2 tsp. Monosodium Glutamate (optional) additional flour for separate pre-coating 5-6 cups Crisco cooking oil 1 frying chicken, cut in pieces Safety Warning: A special pressure fryer is the only type of pressure cooker that you can fry in safely. Read your manufacturer's instructions before frying in a pressure cooker. If you don't have your instruction manual, then prepare this chicken in a deep fryer instead. Pour the oil into the pressure fryer or deep pan suitable for frying, and then heat over medium heat to about 360 degrees. In a small bowl beat the egg, milk, and soy sauce, then stir in 1/2 tsp. Knorr chicken bouillon (save the other 1/2). Put the garlic cloves through a garlic press and add into the egg mixture. Add half of the parsley and 1 tbsp. Wondra flour. Stir well. In a separate bowl, combine the 1 cup flour and the bread crumbs, and the remaining ingredients. Mix well with a fork. Put about 1/2 cup additional flour in a separate small bowl. Use this to dip each chicken piece, prior to dipping in the milk and seasonings. Roll each piece of chicken around until well covered, first in plain flour, then in milk mixture, then in flour/bread crumbs mixture. Gently lower the chicken pieces into the hot oil and allow to become a golden color (add the bigger pieces first). Pressure Fryer: If you are using a pressure fryer, place the lid on and lock it when the chicken is a very light golden color, usually about 3 minutes. Begin timing when the lid is locked and the gauge indicates a pressure of 5-6 pounds. Bring temperature up immediately and watch carefully (don't walk away!). Remove from heat after about 7 minutes and reduce pressure following manufacturer's directions. Remove the chicken pieces and place on layers of paper towels. Return the pan to the stove and bring temperature back up and continue until all chicken pieces are fried. If your chicken was too brown, cook the next batch for a minute or so less, and vice versa if your chicken wasn't browned enough. Do not overload the cooker with too many pieces, as it brings the temperature down too quickly and will cause the pieces to absorb more of the cooking oil than it otherwise would. Regular Deep Frying: Fry the chicken at 360-375 degrees, placing the larger pieces in when the temperature is slightly lower (temperature will drop when pieces are added). Put the smaller pieces in when the temperature is higher, and they will be cooked more quickly. Remove when chicken is golden brown and drain on paper towels. TIP: To flavor the oil in this method, you can thickly slice a few large onions and add to the oil before the chicken - skim these out when they are browned, before adding the chicken. It will add an additional layer of flavor to the oil!

Umh... yes... even for their employees tey keep it a secret. But we can find similar taste because they use special chiken and oil to fried..... yummy

I've heard that they raise their own chickens. If you notice, it tastes different from other fried chicken places.
