Popeye's Chicken

argh, ya'll got me hungry now! I know that this thread is old but I was bored and searched "Popeyes" and, AHH!, need some good Southern-style chicken right now... time is 11:45 so mine is closing in 15. too bad.

this is the one i found Popeye's Famous Fried Chicken Recipe ------------------------------------- INGREDIENTS: 6 C vegetable oil or olive oil 2/3 C all-purpose flour 1 T. salt 2 T. white pepper 1 tsp. cayenne pepper 2 tsp. paprika 3 eggs 1 frying chicken with skin, cut-up PREPARATION: Heat oil over medium heat in a deep fryer or in a deep cast-iron skillet on the stove. Combine the flour, salt, peppers, and paprika in a bowl. In another bowl, break eggs and beat until well-blended. Check temperature of oil by dropping a pinch of flour mixture in pan. If the oil bubbles rapidly around the flour, it will be the right temperature. 5. Dip each piece of chicken into eggs; then coat generously with the flour mixture. Drop each piece into the hot oil and fry for 15 to 25 minutes or until the chicken is a dark golden brown. Drain chicken on paper towels and serve warm. Makes 8 pieces. NOTE: You really need to use the white pepper to get the right taste to this chicken recipe.

Of course you know they will never give away their secret. But I have found out that all popeyes chicken does not have the same taste.I guess in order for you to get the recipe,you will have to find someone who works there to get you a bag of batter. lol
