Kentucky Fried Chicken in the Air Fryer - KFC Copycat Recipe

Kentucky Fried Chicken is the food of the good obviously, but cooking fried chicken at home stinks the place out, so using the air fryer which keep the smells to a minimum is a right bonus. Also it's marginally healthier, but not much if at all. In this recipe I feel like 1) i've cracked the recipe and 2) the best method of cooking it in air fryer.

Hey guys if you would like to see a KFC fillet burger done in the air fryer along with some strips, check out my channel as i've just uploaded a video on that. Thanks for watching!

Since we don’t have a KFC in our town we have to travel to near bye Leeds, which means that we only have KFC when I’m coming home from Leeds which is not very often.
Thank you for publishing this video, so now I can cook Southern Fried Chicken from home. For that reason, I decided to subscribe

If you are in the UK you can get "Graces Perfect blend - Strong Blend" which is the actual KFC recipe (Irish KFC franchise that had a falling out with Colonel Sanders and refused to stop selling the breading) and in the US "Marion Kay Spices - Chicken Seasoning 99-X"

I'm watching this at 9:30 am and I want to prepare it right now !
Thanks a lot.

Adding celery salt gives it the extra authentic dimension.👌

Just made this for dinner. Followed your instructions pretty closely.
I found 200 C (390 F) was a bit too hot . The breading got a little darker than I would have thought perfect.
It was still very good. and the whole chicken cost 5 bucks. So, good deal. But, boy, it was a messy kitchen when I was done.
Thank you for posting this.

I've been using a short cut. Never eaten KFC so don't know if it's even close. All I use on the chicken and in the flour are equal parts of Old Bay (18 herbs and spices!!) and McCormicks rotisserie chicken seasoning. Tasty.

[ellioto]

made this today mate, absolutely phenomenal, big thumbs up

[MarkHarrop]

Favorite chicken when travel to US ; missing it past few years; will try this recipe definitely. If I may, in your recipe list, kindly include the measurements for the spices, for new cooks. thank you

[trayemerson]

390° f is recommended, but I noticed cooking it at 360°f for 25 minutes helps it to not get overly brown, but cooks it all the way through to the bone. I've also used 380° f for around 20 minutes and it seems to do the job. I think 390 or 400 tends to overcook the chicken on the outside. I guess it all depends on what air fryer you're using. Experiment with the temperatures and times to get it perfect for your air fryer.

Well done! Will try it tonight Your soothing voice helped me watch the entire video and so glad I did! Sometimes I hear an awful squeaky voice and hit the stop button haha THANKS!!

[manYAWEH]

👏 Well done brother. I applaud you for using a non-aerosol spray on the teflon pan. And rubber coated tongs, as well. However may I suggest that you try the 2 additional secrets to southern fried chicken. 1) Buttermilk (Soak for a min. 1 hour. Overnight is best) Celery salt. Great job.Love your laid back approach.

[sassylassie]

So many comments on the authenticity of your recipe here, all I can say is I personally don't think KFC is as good as it was so I'm definitely going to try this! Many thanks it looked lush!!!👍

[sylviefrenchie]

You have a new subbie 🙋. I liked the way you put all the ingredients on the counter prior to cooking. Now all I have to do is take a pic & go to the supermarket to buy the ingredients. You also have a great voice. Looking forward to seeing more videos 😋
