Best 3 Kfc Potato Wedges Copycat Recipes

HOMEMADE KFC POTATO WEDGES

Steps:

• Wash potatoes well, and cut into small wedges. The wedges should be no larger than 3/8 of an inch thick at the outside of the potato. Ideally, the potato wedges should be cut as uniformly as possible.
• Place the potato wedges in a large bowl and add enough water to cover the potatoes. Allow the potatoes to soak for at least 1 hour (best overnight).
• Combine milk and egg in a small bowl. Whisk together to mix the egg fully into the milk.
• In another bowl, combine flour, salt, garlic salt, onion powder, black pepper, and poultry seasoning.
• Heat oil to 350 degrees.
• Dredge the potatoes in the flour, then dip into the egg wash, and then back into the flour.
• Place the breaded potatoes on a wire rack on top of a baking sheet to allow them to dry. The coating will set up and stay on the potatoes better if allowed to set for 5 to 10 minutes before frying
• Fry potatoes in batches for 5 to 6 minutes, remove and place on a wire rack to drain.
• After the first cooking time, place each batch of potatoes back into the oil for another 3 to 4 minutes. This second cooking will result in potatoes with a very crisp outer coating. When removed for the second time drain on the wire rack, and then serve immediately.
