Chicken 'en Garlic

 

Fried Chicken is one of the most common variations of cooking chicken. Everybody loves to cook fried chicken at home especially with kids. It’s very quick and easy to prepare and it's is usually good for dinner! What I love for fried chickens are “every bite is a crunch!” Hmmmm.. nam.. nam…

This is my ever favorite simple recipe to make for my family and chicken is also one of our favorite too! I love to eat the crunch together with a chili sauce or gravy. We can’t resist taking another cup of rice whenever I’m cooking this at home… Well, I should do it just once in a while of course to observe our diet! We can always buy the ready to mix breading for this, but what I usually do is to make it from scratch which is very simple. Another thing why I love this recipe is because of its garlic flavor and the nice aroma which added the taste of the chicken more tasty. What I did is fry first the garlic into the heated cooking oil until brown so that the cooking oil will then have its own garlic flavor.
