Juicy chicken breast in sour cream batter
Thanks to sour cream, the batter comes out very airy and tender, and the chicken itself is incredibly juicy. Give preference to higher fat sour cream – ideally 20%. You can choose absolutely any spices to your taste. The main condition is to marinate the chicken meat thoroughly so that it is saturated with flavor.
Unlike all previous recipes, here the chicken fillet in batter is not fried in a frying pan, but rather cooked in boiling oil, like French fries. If you have a deep fryer, you can use it. If not, any pan with a sufficient amount of odorless vegetable oil will do - this is a fundamental point.
You will need:
- chicken fillet – 1 kg;
- vegetable oil – 2-3 tbsp. l.;
- salt to taste;
- garlic to taste;
- ground black pepper to taste;
- seasoning to taste.
Cooking stages.
1. Rinse the chicken fillet in water, dry it, remove all excess - fat, film, skin, if any. Cut the meat into long strips. Don't make it too small.
2. Mix salt, pepper and seasoning of your choice. Sprinkle chicken strips with this mixture, add oil, mix everything thoroughly, close the lid and marinate for at least 1 hour.
3. While the chicken meat is infusing, make the batter. Break 3 eggs into a deep plate, add salt and stir quickly with a fork. Then add sour cream and mix everything again.
4. After this, add flour and stir everything again - the dough should be thicker than for pancakes. Let it brew for about a quarter of an hour.
5. Place the chopped chicken fillet in the batter and mix well. Make sure that each piece is completely covered with this mixture.
6. Pour sunflower oil into a saucepan and heat it thoroughly over high heat. Then reduce it to a minimum and send in the required amount of chicken fillet - the oil should cover it. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side.
7. Repeat with all the meat. Place the finished chicken fillet in batter on a napkin or paper towel, or you can also put it in a colander so that the oil completely drains. Serve hot.
Chicken wing batter like KFC
Ingredients:
- Wings – 1.5 kg,
- Wheat flour - 10 tablespoons (including 4 large spoons for breading),
- Starch - 3 large spoons,
- Egg – 1 piece,
- Vegetable oil – 1 l,
- Water – 200 ml,
- Chicken seasoning mixture - 1 tablespoon,
- Dry herbs (Provencal, Italian and others) – 1 teaspoon,
- Salt – 1 teaspoon,
- Ground black pepper - half a small spoon,
- Ground red pepper, paprika - to taste.
Preparation:
- I clean the chicken wings from any remaining feathers, rinse them and wipe them dry with paper towels.
- I cut it into 3 parts. Transfer to a deep bowl.
- Add salt and 2 large spoons of water, pepper. Mix thoroughly. I leave it for 1 hour.
- I prepare the batter in a separate bowl. I mix starch with flour and add all the spices. I stir. I add additional salt to taste.
Helpful advice. To make the breading less hard, reduce the ratio of starch to flour.
- I mix eggs with water. I whisk it gently. Pour into the spice mixture. Constantly stirring, I add new water. The batter for the chicken will not be too thick, with a consistency close to kefir.
- I take the wings out of the bowl with salt and pepper and put them in batter. I stir so that every particle is thoroughly soaked.
- To obtain a crispy crust, I use dry breading. I prepare it as follows: add a small amount of paprika to the flour (to give it a different color), salt and pepper.
- I roll the battered wings in flour. It is better to do it alternately with each particle, not allowing the batter to drain into the plate. I send the wings to the frying pan.
- Pour vegetable oil into the pan. I take the container larger and deeper so that the wings float freely. I bring the oil to a boil. I lower it until a light blush forms.
Helpful advice. Cook over high heat in a thick-walled container that holds heat well. Otherwise, the wings cook slowly and absorb a large amount of oil, becoming greasy and tasteless.
- I put the finished wings on a plate in batter like at KFC. I wipe it on all sides with napkins, removing excess fat. I put a new portion in the pan.
Helpful advice. Use the oven if, due to the wrong temperature setting, the meat turns out to be raw inside.

Recipe for Chicken Breasts in Crispy Batter:
Take 2 chicken breasts and use a kebab skewer to pierce them lengthwise through, from the film side, at the very top.
Now turn the breast over so that the skewer is on the bottom and cut it across 1 cm wide to the skewer. This will prevent the breast from cutting through. Remove the skewers.
Place the chicken breasts in a bowl and pour TM Kikkoman Teriyaki soy sauce for marinating. Coat it well in the cuts. Prepare three plates: beaten eggs, flour and salt and breadcrumbs with ground pepper and herbes de Provence. Heat the deep frying oil in a tall saucepan on the fire. You can check if the butter is ready by placing a dry skewer in the center of the pan. If it bubbles well around, the oil is hot. Reduce heat, let the oil “calm down” for a few minutes and you can start frying.
Dredge each breast well in flour, this also applies to the cuts. Shake off excess flour.
Then dip well on all sides and in the cuts in beaten eggs.
Then roll in breadcrumbs in the same way. Shake off the excess. Since the breast is wide, cut it in half along its entire length. Also dip the cut areas into all the plates one by one. Take it in the center with a fork, so the slits open, and lower it into the oil.
Carefully lower the prepared breasts into the oil and fry until golden brown, this will take 2-3 minutes. Place on a paper towel
Add chopped parsley to ketchup, mix and serve to the breasts. You can use any other sauce, your favorite. Bon appetit!
