How Do I Get Breading to Stick on Homemade Fried Chicken?

[idontknowmuch2]

Soak in buttermilk for 30 minutes then bread as follows:
Mix flour, breadcrumbs and cornmeal , salt pepper and spices together then dip chicken in flour mixture to coat, then dip in buttermilk and flour mixture one more time.
You can either deep fry in oil or bake in 375F for 45 minutes.

I flour my chicken first and then use a flour,egg mixture on it

I cook my chicken twice. I pat chicken dry and submerge in seasoned egg mix. Allow to sit for 15 minutes. Put in seasoned flour and cornstarch. I pack the flour mix around the chicken (not just toss or roll) then pan fry in vegetable oil and butter mix on medium high heat until golden brown. I then transfer to a wire rack in a 375 degree preheated oven for 15 minutes. I season with lots of pepper, salt, onion powder, garlic powder and a 7 herb blend.

Start by drying your chicken and then Dip in egg then flour and then repeat that and finally, dip in bread crumbs

Use 3 dishes for dipping - tray 1 has plan flour, tray 2 has egg (can put seasonings in the egg tray), tray 3 has panko or whatever you’re using to bread the chicken (seasonings in this tray also). Dip in #1 and shake off the excess, dip in #2, dip in #3. For extra crispy, do #1, #2, #1, #2, then #3. I like to fry but it also works to bake the breaded chicken.

After letting chicken become room temp. Par dry with paper towels, season both sides then flour, beaten eggs, flour. You should also season the flour with salt pepper onion garlic powers paprika
Male sure it very hot that binds the breading to the chicken.

My favorite is wherever I can buy it already cooked ! I picked my battle and the homemade version won ! Can’t make ain’t gonna try no more

Soak it in milk

 

[mrs41intx]

I’ve always done all purpose flour with seasoning, cover the chicken with it, dip in eggs with a few teaspoons of water, and then back into the flour.

@mrs41intx this works,

 

[excellentname]

Put in buttermilk then flour

 

[dfirst]

Flour, buttermilk, flour again, then lay out on a platter and put in refrigerator for about 30 minutes or longer, before putting in hot oil.

Honestly all you have to do is shake it in a plastic or paper bag of flour and make sure your grease is hot enough

 

[alanstranger1]

You need a binder. ( something to make it stay together) eggs or Mayo and milk dip before crumbs should help.

I used to have that problem. I was doing egg-flour-fry.... now I do flour-egg-flour (breadcrumbs, whatever) then fry. They usually end up sitting a few minutes between being breaded and getting fried. Don't skimp on the oil if you are pan frying. Deeper oil keeps the breading on better.

Is grease hot enough
