Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken thighs
- 1 cup Plain low-sodium yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Ginger powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Non-sodium poultry seasoning
- 0.5 cup Water
- 2 cups Vegetable oil
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine plain low-sodium yogurt, low-sodium soy sauce, garlic powder, ginger powder, and black pepper. Mix well to form a marinade.
Add chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to overnight for maximum flavor.
In another large bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, paprika, baking powder, and non-sodium poultry seasoning.
Remove chicken from marinade and let excess marinade drip off.
Add water to the flour mixture and stir until it forms a thick batter. It should be similar in consistency to pancake batter. Add more water if necessary.
Dip each marinated chicken thigh into the batter, ensuring it is fully covered.
Heat vegetable oil in a large, heavy skillet or deep fryer over medium-high heat until it reaches about 350°F (175°C).
Carefully place each battered chicken thigh into the hot oil, frying a few pieces at a time to avoid overcrowding.
Fry the chicken for about 7-10 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oil and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
Serve the low sodium Ayam Goreng Tepung hot, accompanied by your favorite side dishes.
