🧂 Ingredients

For Marination:

Chicken pieces – 4 leg pieces (with bone)

Ginger garlic paste – 1 tbsp

Red chili powder – 1 tsp (adjust to taste)

Black pepper powder – 1 tsp

Salt – 1 tsp

Vinegar – 2 tbsp

Lemon juice – 2 tbsp

Soy sauce – 1 tbsp

Mustard paste (optional) – ½ tsp


For Coating:

All-purpose flour (maida) – 1½ cups

Cornflour – ½ cup

Baking powder – ½ tsp

Salt – ½ tsp

Black pepper – ½ tsp

Paprika powder – ½ tsp (for color)

Cold water or buttermilk—as needed

For Frying:

Oil—for deep frying

👩‍🍳 Instructions

🔸 Step 1: Marinate the Chicken

1. Wash and pat the chicken pieces dry.

2. In a bowl, mix ginger-garlic paste, red chili, black pepper, salt, vinegar, lemon juice, soy sauce, and mustard paste.

3. Add chicken pieces and coat well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4–6 hours (overnight for best flavor).

🔸 Step 2: Prepare Coating Mixture

1. In a large plate, mix maida, cornflour, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika powder.


2. In another bowl, keep some cold water or buttermilk ready.

🔸 Step 3: Coat the Chicken

Take each marinated chicken piece, coat it in the flour mixture, then quickly dip it in cold water and coat it again with the flour.

2. Press the flour onto the chicken to form a rough, craggy texture (for extra crispiness).

🔸 Step 4: Frying

1. Heat oil in a deep pan or wok on medium heat.

Carefully add the coated chicken to the pan and fry on medium heat for 10–12 minutes, or until it is golden brown and thoroughly cooked.

3. Remove and drain on a paper towel.

🍟 Serving Suggestion

Serve hot with:

French fries 🍟

Garlic mayo or ketchup

Fresh salad or coleslaw

Dinner rolls or buns

It also tastes great inside a burger bun with lettuce and sauce!

💡 Tips for Perfect Broast

Don’t skip double coating—it gives that signature crispy crust.

After coating the chicken, refrigerate it for 15 to 20 minutes before frying

Maintain a medium flame—too high will burn the outside and leave the inside raw.

You can air-fry or bake for a healthier version (but traditional fry tastes best 😉).


🌶 Variations You Can Try

For a spicy roast, incorporate crushed red chili or hot sauce into the marinade.

Zinger Style:

Use boneless fillets instead of leg pieces.

Buttermilk Soak:

 Marinating chicken in buttermilk for several hours improves its tenderness.

📝 Conclusion

This homemade chicken breast recipe is a crispy, spicy delight that tastes just like your favorite fast food joint—but even better! Try it once and you’ll never want to order again.
