Then you need to go to the Kentucky Fried Chicken headquarters and steal it out of their locked, guarded vault. They guard that secret like a national treasure.
Use Crisco shortening versus vegetable oil.Use a well season flour to coat the chicken before frying. Remember those 11 herbs and spices, they are an important factor in the Colonel’s recipe.
Here is a recipe for seasoned flour to get you started, and it is just that. Adjust the recipe as you see fit tweaking ingredients until your happy with the results.
they keep the recipe written down in two parts, in two different locations, it was just recently moved and brinks was hired for the job, that is how SECRET it is……and rumor for years has been that it is nothing more than salt, pepper, flour and garlic powder…….lol
Many of my family members live only about thirty minutes from the original Colonel Sanders Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant in Corbin, Kentucky. I remember hanging out sometimes in Corbin as a teenager. Since people lived around the original Corbin KFC restaurant, it seems that maybe we have a shot at possessing the most authentic Kentucky Fried Chicken recipe clone.
Still, I don’t believe anyone will ever have the exact Kentucky Fried Chicken recipe. That fried chicken recipe probably was buried with Colonel Sanders himself. Anyway, here is how most people from the Corbin area fix their version of a Kentucky Fried Chicken recipe.

Original Kentucky Fried Chicken Coating Secret Ingredients
2 teaspoons dried chervil (optional, but makes a huge difference in taste)
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
1 teaspoon instant chicken bouillon powder
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1 teaspoon tarragon
1/2 teaspoon sage
1/4 teaspoon pepper
3 cups pancake mix, preferably Bisquick brand (self-rising flour can be substituted, but won’t taste as good)
Instructions for Making the Original KFC Recipe
Blend all of the Kentucky Fried Chicken ingredients for the coating in a blender.
The fried chicken coating is enough for a whole chicken, cut up. Soak the chicken pieces in buttermilk for at least one hour in the refrigerator. Remove chicken from buttermilk and roll in the chicken coating mixture above. Let chicken sit at room temperature while waiting for the oil to get hot.
Deep fry if possible for the most authentic copy of the original Kentucky Fried Chicken recipe. If that is not possible, use a cast iron skillet. Do not crowd the chicken when placing into the skillet. Use lard or shortening if you really want that original Kentucky Fried Chicken taste. If you’re making this chicken recipe, chances are you weren’t looking for low-fat, healthy recipes.
Brown the chicken in the skillet on high heat. Then turn down the heat and cover the pan. Cook until the fried chicken is done, about 30 minutes. During the last 5 or 10 minutes, uncover the pan and turn up the heat. This will crisp up the fried chicken. Be careful not to burn the chicken during this last step.
