1 package Lipton tomato cup-a-soup mix
* or 4 cubes mashed There are actually 11 spices in the above combination, but an additional 3 ingredients were necessary to derive that special flavor.

Place all ingredeints in blender with on\off speed for 3-4 minutes to pulverize, or rub through a fine strainer.

Store in an airtight container so it will not lose potency. Makes about 3/4 cup. To use with flour: Add 1 oz. mix to a cup of flour for coating chicken.

Answer 2

The 11 secret herbs and spices are a guarded secret. People may come up with the mixture, but I haven't found anything that equals the amounts.
I think the real trick to making the chicken so crunchy and good is by frying in a pressure cooker.

Answer 4

The flavor you might get close to but it is the style of cooking that gives it the texture and crispiness that will be hard to copy. They do a pressure cooker type fryer that is patented only to KFC. You can't buy it at the regular stores.

Closest I get to it is this:

Soak the cut up chicken in buttermilk for 3 hours to overnight.

When ready to bread, heat up an inch of oil in a cast iron pan. On a plate add 2 cups of flour, tsp each of: salt, pepper, thyme, paprika, garlic powder and onion powder. Mix well.

Preheat oven to 375*, place a pan full of hot water in oven.

Pick up chicken, shake it gently to get the dripping to stop and dredge it wet in the flour. Coat well and let it sit on a rack for a moment. Dredge the rest of the chicken. Add the pieces to the hot oil. Brown on all sides and place back on (cleaned) rack. Place chicken in oven for 15 minutes or till cooked through.

Serve.

Answer 5

I just saw a show about this on the Food Network and it says that the recipe is guarded at the headquarters and only one person knows it. Sorry. I guess people can try and guess but it would only be a guess.

Answer 6

noboidy knows it - it will be kept secret by KFC because if you found it, you would legally be able to rip it off and open youre own store. Quite simply, it will be impossible to find it out

This is the same with coca-cola. They will be locked in a vault somewhere.

but good luck all the same
