Time 50m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 frying chicken
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup rum
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 teaspoon powdered ginger
1 bay leaf
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 sazon goya
1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
2 cups flour
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
vegetable oil (for deep frying)

Steps:

  • Cut chicken into chunks, if you purchase from a butcher have them cut it into chunks to save time and effort. You should get 10-16 pieces.
  • Combine soy sauce, lemon juice, rum, minced garlic, ginger, and bay leaf in bowl or zipper bag, add chicken pieces, and let marinate at least 4 hours in refrigerator (overnight is best).
  • Combine flour, oregano, sazon, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper, and put on a plate or waxed paper for dredging.
  • In an electric fryer, or on the stove in a deep skillet or pot, heat vegetable oil (to 375 degrees if you have a thermometer).
  • Right before frying, dredge chicken 4-5 pieces at a time, and fry until crisp and golden brown. The time will depend on the size of the chicken.
  • As you complete each batch, remove cooked pieces to a rack or paper towel lined plate to drain. Dredge and fry next batch.

I found these to be a bit bland. I think they needed more seasoning.
