Ron's Extra Tasty Crispy Chicken

Ingredients 

1 whole frying chicken, cut up
6 to 8 cups vegetable shortening

Marinade
4 cups water
1 tablespoon salt
1/2 teaspoon MSG

Coating
1 egg, beaten
1 cup milk
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoon pepper
3/4 teaspoon MSG

1. Trim any excess skin and fat from the chicken pieces. Preheat the shortening in a deep fryer to 350 degrees.

2. Combine the water, salt, and 1/2 teaspoon MSG for the marinade in a large bowl. Add the chicken to the bowl and let it sit for 20 minutes. Turn the chicken a couple times as it marinates. 
Useful tip from Ron : After soaking in the marinade, add 1cup up of marinade to pressure cooker, add rack, add chicken, and pressure cook 5-8 minutes. Cool and continue your recipe.


Tidbits
MSG is monosodium glutamate, the solid form of a natural amino acid found in many vegetables. It can be found in stores in the spice sections and as the brand name Accent flavor enhancer. MSG is an important component of many KFC items

3. Combine the beaten egg and milk in a medium bowl. In another medium bowl, combine the remaining coating ingredients (flour, salt, pepper, and 3/4 teaspoon MSG).

4. When the chicken has marinated, transfer each piece to paper towels so that excess liquid can drain off. Working with one piece at a time, first coat the chicken with the dry flour mixture, then the egg and milk mixture, and then back into the flour. Be sure that each piece is coated very generously. Stack the chicken on a plate or cookie sheet until each piece has been coated.

5. Drop the chicken, one piece at a time, into the hot shortening. Fry half of the chicken at a time (4 pieces) for 12 to 15 minutes, or until it is golden brown. You should be sure to stir the chicken around halfway through the cooking time so that each piece cooks evenly. 

6. Remove the chicken to a rack or towels to drain for about 5 minutes before eating.
Serves 3 to 4 (8 pieces of chicken).
