Is This The End? KFC Recipe Series #9 Here it is our at home KFC recipe. If you've been searching for how to make KFC at home; this may be as close as you're going to get. All 3 of these KFC copycat recipes are great, and will give you better than KFC tasting chicken.
Now 2 things: KFC does not brine their chicken or leave it overnight in buttermilk, so you can leave that out because it does lead to saltier tasting chicken.
Yes KFC uses a pressure fryer, but honestly it isn't needed.
