Many of us love a 'fakeaway' night when you can recreate some of your favourite takeaways without needing to wait for it to get delivered by the restaurant. But the world of KFC fakeaways has just got a whole lot better thanks to one TikTok user called @stephcooksstuff who went viral after sharing her recipe to recreate KFC chicken using only five spices, instead of the 11 secret ones used by the huge chain.
The mysterious eleven herbs and spices need not be a secret much more thanks to this recipe which the creator reckons is better than the real thing. The TikTok chef decided to share her recipe and shared a clip which has since been seen by thousands of fans wanting to try it for themselves. In the clip Steph said: "You guys liked my KFC chippy salt so much that I'm going to share with you my KFC chicken spice recipe. It does not have 11 secret herbs and spices, it only has five.
She then went through the ingredients you need to recreate this amazing dupe for the fried chicken.
For this, she says you will need: "Two heaped tbsp smoked paprika, one heaped tbsp oregano, one heaped tsp white pepper, one heaped tsp onion powder, one heaped tsp garlic powder."
Once you have got all those together, she advises you to give the whole a big shake to get all the mixture together.
Then, she said: "Sprinkle that on all your chicken - you're welcome."
She responded to one commenter who asked what more needs to be done by saying: "Add it to Flour. dunk chicken in buttermilk, then flour, then fry."
The clip has gone viral with thousands of fans commenting their love for the recipe and many saying they will be giving it a try as soon as possible.
One person said: "Can't wait to try this, thank you."
While another wrote: "I'm gonna try that….simple and easy."
