How to make Kanto Fried Chicken

✅Ingredients:

2-3 pounds whole chicken
1 quart water
¼ cup salt
¼ cup sugar
1 cup flour
1 cup cornstarch
1 tablespoon pepper
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon cayenne
2 packets Maggi chicken cubes
1 ¾ cup ice-cold water
Oil

✅Instructions:

Spatchcock the chicken. Lay the chicken and remove the backbone using poultry shears or kitchen scissors. Using a knife, cut through the breastbone, and, with your hands, press the chicken down on both sides. Run fingers down on both sides of the cartilage bone to separate it from the meat. Pull the bone out carefully.

In a large, deep container, add water, salt, and sugar. Whisk until dissolved. Soak the chicken, cover, and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour.

In a bowl, add flour, cornstarch, pepper, baking powder, salt, paprika, cayenne, and Maggi chicken cubes. Whisk together until well combined. Add ice-cold water. Whisk until smooth and refrigerate until ready to use.

In a deep pan, add enough oil to cover the chicken. Heat to 350°F.

Drain chicken from the brine and pat dry. Whisk the batter again before using. Dip the chicken until thoroughly coated. Allow excess batter to drip back into the bowl.

Gently place the chicken in the hot oil. Deep fry until golden and crisp. Check for doneness by inserting a thermometer into the thickest part of the chicken, and it should read 165°F. Remove from the oil and drain on a wire rack. Chop into serving pieces.
