Recipe's preparation

Spice Mix

Place in the mixing bowl "Closed lid" all dried herbs and spices. Mill 10 sec speed 10. Scrape down sides of bowl and repeat if necessary, until all ingredients resemble a fine powder. Add the flour and mix 5 sec speed 8. Place spice flour into a bowl until ready to use.

Add Buttermilk and Eggs to the mixing bowl "Closed lid" Mix 25 sec Speed 4. Transfer into a bowl and add Chicken, Stir then cover and place into refrigerator for 1-2 hrs.

Remove Chicken from the buttermilk soak, allowing excess to drip off. Then place chicken pieces into spice flour mixture, coating all sides, shake off excess coating. Allow to rest before cooking.

Place a large pot over medium heat or deep fryer adding enough oil to cover chicken. Bring oil to 170c, keeping oil at this temperature while frying. Fry in batches for 15-18 minutes. Once cooked place on a rack to remove any excess oil.

Serve warm.

Tip

I serve with Brioche buns and Coleslaw.
Chicken can sit overnight in fridge.

Thermomix Model

Recipe is created for
TM 6

For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
Recipe is created for
TM 5

If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!
