Summary

In this video, the process of preparing marinated chicken for frying is demonstrated step-by-step. The chicken is first seasoned and mixed with baking powder, then left to marinate for at least 3 hours. A three-ingredient breeding mix consisting of third-class flour, cornstarch, and marinated mix is created, with specific ratios to follow for optimal coating. The chicken is then coated with a wet mixture, followed by a dry mixture for an even, crispy coat. The video emphasizes the importance of mixing and coating techniques to achieve the perfect texture.
