It is a KFC popcorn rooster copycat recipe. It’s downright addictive – I problem you to cease at only one! Surprisingly fast, they take simply 2 minutes to prepare dinner, and simply shallow fried at that.
Popcorn rooster
Many individuals have tried this popcorn rooster now, together with a whole crew of builders at my house which is underneath renovation. I gained’t repeat what they really stated after they tried it. Let’s simply say Aussie builders are liberal customers of flowery language when they’re pissed off – or after they’re extraordinarily enthusiastic! 😂
The flavour is a copycat of KFC popcorn rooster, with it’s distinct seasoning. However there’s one massive standout distinction – this do-it-yourself popcorn rooster is definitely crispy. KFC’s will not be! It’s slightly comfortable and fairly greasy.
For individuals who are nervous about fried recipes, this popcorn rooster is an efficient place to begin as a result of we’re solely shallow frying and every batch takes simply 2 minutes to prepare dinner. A lot simpler than deep frying entire rooster items!
Substances in Popcorn Rooster
Popcorn rooster is made by marinating small items of rooster then coating in a closely seasoned “KFC 11 secret herbs and spices” flour combination. The coating is very formulated so the rooster cooks up actually crispy – no soggy popcorn rooster round right here!
Rooster and marinade
This recipe makes use of a buttermilk marinade, like Southern Fried Rooster, to maintain the rooster meat juicy. Marinating is kind of necessary for popcorn rooster as a result of the items of rooster are so small, they’ll overcook and dry out in a flash.
Don’t have buttermilk? Don’t fear, there are simple substitutes, see beneath the photograph or the recipe card.
-
Rooster – I like to make use of breast as a result of it’s simple to chop into small cubes. Tenderloin can be simple to chop into small even items.
Nevertheless, you actually can use any reduce of rooster meat – thighs, drumstick meat, something that may be reduce into cubes.
-
Buttermilk – Sensible for tenderising the rooster and injecting it with salt so as to add seasoning into the flesh in addition to serving to to maintain it juicy when it cooks. Buttermilk is the standard liquid of alternative used for marinating in Southern Fried Rooster. It’s barely thicker than common milk however thinner than pouring cream, and mixed with egg it creates a very good batter thickness for the correct amount of flour to cling to the floor of every piece.
Discover it alongside milk on the grocery retailer, normally in small 600ml cartons ($2.75). This recipe requires 180ml (3/4 cup) so use the leftover buttermilk to make Blueberry or Choc Chip Muffins, or Purple Velvet Cake.
Substitutes – you need to use yogurt blended with milk, or make your individual buttermilk with milk and vinegar. Each these substitutes work simply as nicely, I attempted them each!
Non dairy – You should utilize any non dairy milk blended with any non dairy yogurt so long as they’re impartial flavoured eg. they don’t style nutty. If the yogurt has no acidity in it, like dairy yogurt does, then add 1 teaspoon of white vinegar into the marinade, then it’ll have the same marinating impact like buttermilk does.

Egg helps the flour follow the rooster.
-
Salt – To season the flesh of the rooster.
Flour coating (“breading”) and seasoning
“Breading” refers to coating the rooster within the seasoned flour combination. It’s is a time period used within the US which refers to coating issues in breadcrumbs or different dry combination (like seasoned flour we’re utilizing right here) that turns into a crispy crust when cooked.
Right here in Australia, we have a tendency to make use of the phrase “crumbing” once we coat meals with breadcrumbs, however I by no means felt it was the suitable time period when there’s no breadcrumbs concerned. So I take advantage of the time period “breading” which appears just a little extra common within the culinary world today, despite the fact that sure, I do know breadcrumbs aren’t concerned!
-
The Seasoning is a KFC copycat. It’s the identical components utilized in my KFC Copycat Fried Rooster recipe, though portions tweaked barely to swimsuit Popcorn Rooster. For instance, the amount of salt is drastically lowered as a result of we’re working with tiny items of rooster slightly than large bone-in, skin-one items which is way tougher for seasoning to penetrate. Additionally, I wish to crush the oregano and thyme with my fingers to make them just a little smaller in order that they meld higher onto the floor of the small bites of rooster.
-
Flour and cornflour/cornstarch – Utilizing a mix of flour and cornflour produces one of the best consequence for a crunchy, golden crust for fried rooster. Flour (simply common, plain/all function flour) is normal for coating fried meals, nevertheless it doesn’t develop into all that crispy. Properly, it’s fairly crispy straight out of the fryer nevertheless it loses crispiness shortly.
Cornflour, alternatively, fries up actually crispy nevertheless it doesn’t go a pleasant golden color. And in case you coat issues too thickly in cornflour it turns into too laborious and will get caught in your enamel.
By utilizing a mix of the 2, we will obtain crispy fried rooster perfection with simply the precise texture!
-
Oil for cooking – canola, vegetable or peanut oil, for impartial flavour and talent to warmth to the temperature wanted with out burning the rooster or the oil smoking.

Fry 2 minutes at 180°C/350°F.
Nevertheless, this part is just a little lengthier than 3 steps so even up-and-coming cooks can have the boldness that this can be a slightly simple recipe. I’ve some ideas succesful cooks in all probability already know for working with heaps and many little items of rooster. Coating and cooking them one-by-one could be a ache!
1. Preparation
-
Reduce the rooster into small 1.25cm / 1/2″ cubes.
I reduce the rooster into 1.25cm / 1/2″ strips, then reduce the skinny finish into cubes, and reduce the broader finish in half lengthways then into cubes.

Whisk marinade – Put the buttermilk marinade components in a bowl and whisk to mix.

The aim right here is to get all these little items of rooster coated within the breading combination with out having to deal with them one-by-one which might take perpetually! The additional aim is a straightforward little trick that makes our popcorn rooster prepare dinner up further crispy. 🙂
Bonus: Comply with my left hand / proper hand directions so that you don’t find yourself with batter-caked fingers!
Additionally – see Substances part above for touch upon “crumbing” v “breading”. As a result of it’s being raised!
-
Scoop up 3 tablespoons of the marinade out of the rooster bowl. (That is for the extra-crispy trick).
-
Dribble this marinade throughout the floor of the flour combination.

Combine / rub the marinade via the flour so that you get plenty of little clumps of flour. These develop into further crispy bits on the rooster, it’s so good! Wonderful crispy rooster trick picked up Kenji’s Fried Rooster recipe on Critical Eats.
-

3. COOKING THE POPCORN CHICKEN
Cooking vessel – I discover it best to make use of a big saucepan or small pot round 20cm/8″ in measurement although in case you are a assured prepare dinner you need to use a bigger one round 25cm/10″. Popcorn rooster solely takes a few minutes to prepare dinner so in case you use a big cooking vessel it’s worthwhile to transfer sooner – see FAQ for extra data.
Shallow frying – As a result of the items of rooster are so small, we don’t want a lot oil. Simply 2.5cm / 1″ depth in no matter cooking vessel you’re utilizing. It’s going to vary from ~2 1/2 cups (625 ml) for a 20cm/8″ small pot to three 1/2 cups (875 ml) for a 25cm/10″ pot.
-
Last toss / separate – The rooster will sweat and the white flour coating will darken because it sits round on the tray. So if yours has darkened a bit, give the rooster you’re about to prepare dinner just a little toss on the tray within the extra flour to re-coat them and make them white once more, and to make sure they don’t seem to be sticking collectively.
-
Use scooper for security (or fingers, in case you’re a professional) – Then use a big scooper with giant holes (slightly than superb mesh) to select up a handful of rooster items and shake off extra flour (ie falls via the outlet).
Fingers – If you happen to’re a assured prepare dinner, be at liberty to make use of your fingers however watch out of oil splash-age. I choose to make use of fingers as a result of then I can drop the rooster in one-by-one to make sure they aren’t sticking collectively.
-
Decrease the rooster into oil pre-heated to 180°C/350°F utilizing the scooper.
Use a meals thermometer to check the oil temperature, or see recipe notes for methods to check the oil temperature in case you don’t have one.
-
Fry 2 minutes – Then prepare dinner the rooster for two – 2 1/2 minutes till the floor is crispy and golden. Agitate the rooster midway via the prepare dinner time and separate any sticking collectively.
-
Scoop – When the rooster is finished, scoop it out.
-
Unfold – Then unfold it out on a paper towel lined tray, to soak up extra oil. Then proceed to prepare dinner remaining rooster, remembering to do some ultimate flour toss on the tray earlier than cooking every batch!

Issues of serving
Dipping sauce
And although I can guarantee you that this popcorn rooster is flavoured sufficient and crispy sufficient on the skin and juicy sufficient on the within to need to shovel handfuls into your mouth plain, just a little dipping sauce definitely by no means goes astray.
My favorite is Honey Mustard Sauce, pictured – 4 ingredient, 1 minute sauce (you perceive why it’s a dipping fave!). Use what you need – ketchup, BBQ, candy and bitter, candy chilli. It’s rooster. You may just about use any dipping sauce for it!
HOW TO SERVE IT
Tumble all of it into an enormous serving bowl and let all people dig in (fingers!) and assist themselves.
Or, serve it like film popcorn in paper cups or popcorn packing containers, in case you’re feeling further enjoyable! I picked up those pictured on this publish from a reduction retailer, they have been $2 for five (right here they’re on Amazon Australia).
WHAT TO SERVE WITH POPCORN CHICKEN
For an actual KFC expertise at house, full your meal with a aspect of do-it-yourself slaw (right here’s my favorite no-mayo Slaw, if you need a lighter possibility) and KFC copycat potato and gravy (makes a wonderful dipper too!).
Else, another glorious aspect choices embody baked potato wedges, do-it-yourself fries or crispy smashed potatoes, plus a easy backyard salad or any leafy greens tossed with my go-to easy salad dressing.
Hope you get pleasure from! Oh, and just a little trick I shared with a reader I ran into yesterday after I advised her I used to be sharing this in the present day (hello Charlotte!) – use leftover marinade and flour to prepare dinner up some little frivolously steamed cauliflower florets. It appears simply just like the rooster. What a approach to sneak greens into the youngsters, eh?? A popcorn field full of a mixture of popcorn rooster and popcorn cauliflower!! – Nagi x
Popcorn rooster further ideas & FAQ
Wasn’t too unhealthy truly! To be trustworthy, I’ve been dabbling with this recipe for some time. I simply by no means dedicated to “finalising it” to make it shareable. The flavouring and cooking method is predicated on my current KFC Fried Rooster copycat recipe. Altering it to make it appropriate for popcorn rooster simply concerned arising with a sensible workflow to coat and prepare dinner dozens and dozens of little items of rooster. Making an attempt to coat them individually will not be viable!! It’s simpler to in case you make them bigger – and most popcorn rooster recipes I noticed on-line have a tendency to chop them twice as giant as I do, if not bigger – however I wished mine to be really popcorn measurement, like those you get at KFC. Assume – seize and shovel in your mouth by the handful!
Apart from that, it was about tweaking the seasonings to make it appropriate for the smaller items of rooster and to repeat the KFC popcorn rooster flavour. I discovered the KFC Fried Rooster seasoning was just a little too sturdy when used for tiny cubes of rooster slightly than the big bone-in items, so I needed to alter the combo a bit.
The opposite alterations have been about scale. Cooking giant bone-in, skin-on items of rooster may be very completely different to cooking plenty of little cubes. Meat scale sensible, we use lower than 1/3 (500g/1lb popcorn rooster vs 1.8kg/3.6lb fried rooster) however we have to use 3/4 of the marinade and breading combination (as a result of popcorn rooster has a lot extra floor space) whereas the salt needed to be reduce down by virtually 3/4 (as a result of salt penetration of tiny items of meat is a lot sooner than with bigger skin-on items).
So there was lots of tweaking to get the stability proper of flavour v portions. It in all probability took about 4 goes in complete throughout the previous yr and 4 instances prior to now week as I focussed on finalising it.
In comparison with another recipes, it was very low effort testing and growth time. And I used to be by no means in need of folks desirous to take the leftovers!!!
One factor I love to do when I’ve “finalised a recipe” is to check variations for substitutions that I believe could possibly be generally utilized by readers. On this recipe, the important thing substitution possibility supplied is for buttermilk. I like to make use of buttermilk for the bottom recipe as a result of it’s the basic methodology for Southern Fried Rooster upon which my fried rooster recipe is predicated.
Nevertheless, whereas buttermilk is a standard and acquainted ingredient within the States, it isn’t a normal grocery merchandise right here in Australia.
Buttermilk is a barely bitter milk that’s the leftover liquid after churning milk to make butter. It’s barely thicker than common milk however thinner than pouring cream. It’s an ingredient utilized in baking for its capacity so as to add moistness into issues like muffins and muffins.
For baking recipes, generally I don’t advocate utilizing substitutions as a result of the top result’s considerably compromised.
Nevertheless, for this recipe, it may be substituted with a mixture of yogurt and milk, or by curdling milk with a contact of lemon, each of which yield a barely bitter milk combination that could be a bit thicker than plain milk. I attempted this recipe with each these choices and it was precisely the identical as utilizing buttermilk.
For flour-coated issues like this, and particularly such small items of rooster, I’ve discovered that it simply doesn’t work within the oven as a result of even in case you spray with a great deal of oil, the floor stays floury slightly than forming a crust. Additionally with small items of rooster like this, we simply wouldn’t have the ability to have it within the oven lengthy sufficient to brown – the within would manner overcook!
I’m not skilled sufficient with the air fryer to advise the way it must be altered to work efficiently. I think the rooster would must be reduce into bigger items so it could possibly be cooked for just a little longer within the air fryer to provide it adequate time to get some color and the crust to kind, together with generously spraying with oil. You’d in all probability even have to show them one after the other which might be tedious in case you reduce them as small as I do, into actual popcorn rooster measurement. So once more, this helps the argument for slicing them bigger for the air fryer. Who desires to show 80 items of rooster?? Not me!
If I can persuade my Air Fryer Queen good friend to have a crack at figuring it out, I shall come again and replace the recipe!❤️
3 to 4 days within the fridge, although the rooster will not be as juicy as freshly made. Nonetheless tasty although! You may both give it a fast 30 second fry to reheat (greatest), or in a sizzling oven for 3 minutes. I don’t advocate freezing, I believe the meat will dry out an excessive amount of.
For frying, it’s best and most secure to make use of a heavy primarily based one ie a heavy pot or giant saucepan which suggests it’s constructed from thicker materials (slightly than these flimsy low cost mild aluminium ones). These are higher for warmth retention and distribution so the meals will prepare dinner extra evenly, and safer as a result of it’s extra secure on the range.
Although it’s temping to make use of a bigger pot so you possibly can prepare dinner extra in a single go, I like to recommend it for assured cooks. It’s because popcorn rooster cooks so shortly – severely, 2 minutes in case you management the temperature precisely and keep 180°C/350°F – so that you want to have the ability to transfer quick and get all of the rooster into the pot on the similar time. If you happen to take too lengthy, the primary one you set in will overcook earlier than the final one finishes cooking! A big pot (25cm / 10″+), can take 2 scoopers full of rooster, or 2 – 3 handfuls. It is best to have the ability to prepare dinner all of the rooster in 3 batches.
So until you’re assured and quick at deep frying, I’d persist with a big saucepan or small pot round 20 – 22 cm / 8 – 9″ extensive, which is what’s pictured on this publish and within the recipe video and can take 4 to five batches to prepare dinner all of the rooster (keep in mind, they solely take round 2 minutes every).
Maintain cooked popcorn rooster heat in a low 50*C/125°F oven. So that you don’t must really feel the stress to hurry and get all of the rooster cooked shortly earlier than the primary batch cools!
Although in case you are utilizing a big pot or skillet, you need to have the ability to prepare dinner the rooster in 3 batches which takes about 6 minutes. During which case, you gained’t want to make use of the oven because the rooster will keep heat sufficient.

Clump = crunchy! Drizzle 3 tablespoons of the Marinade into the flour combination. Use your fingers to rub in so that you get plenty of small lumpy bits all all through (this fries up into further crunchy bits, secret trick!).
Put together to prepare dinner (work in specified order of steps):

Separate and final minute coat (Observe 6) – Simply earlier than frying, use your fingers to briefly re-toss the rooster you are about to prepare dinner within the residual flour on the tray (to clean up the flour coating, because it sits round it sweats/will get moist), and ensure the rooster items usually are not caught collectively.

Recipe Notes:
1. Rooster – This will actually be made with any reduce of rooster meat. I take advantage of breast as a result of it’s simple to chop into small cubes. Lean, however the marinade protects it from drying out.
2. Buttermilk – Substitute with 1/4 cup yoghurt whisked with 1/2 cup milk (finally ends up buttermilk-like), or make your individual buttermilk: add 3/4 tsp white vinegar into 3/4 cup of milk, stir, go away 10 minutes. Will curdle. Use per recipe.
Non dairy – Use plain flavoured non dairy yogurt and milk (portions as above), and it the yogurt will not be acidic in any respect like dairy yogurt is, simply add 1 teaspoon of white vinegar.
3. Salt – Halve if utilizing superb desk salt, improve by 2% if utilizing salt flakes (and crush with fingers to make it finer).
4. Breading notes:
- Cornflour makes it crunchy whereas flour makes it fry up golden (cornflour stays white).
- Add 1 tsp cayenne pepper for decent & spicy!
- Spices – Superb in case you’re lacking one or two, possibly even 3, there’s loads of different spices to maintain it flavourful. See components part for what to substitute with for every spice.
PS In my world, crumbing = breadcrumbs, crushed cornflakes and many others, breading = flour coatings. Mash up of Aussie/US culinary communicate that appears sensible to me, and likewise, I simply can’t use the phrase “crumbing” when there’s no breadcrumbs concerned!!
5. Frying vessel – You’re working with quantity right here, plenty of little items of rooster that cooks quick. Up and coming cooks – I like to recommend utilizing a smaller cooking vessel (~20cm/8″) and cooking in smaller batches which is simpler, much less pace to fret about. Succesful cooks – be at liberty to make use of a bigger cooking vessel ~25cm/10″. With a skillet, you possibly can prepare dinner all of the rooster in 3 batches in 6 minutes flat!
6. Batch cooking – Relying on how briskly you’re employed and the way nicely your rooster is flour coated, the rooster could sweat (ie change from white to darkish) whereas it’s ready round on the tray. In that case, simply toss the rooster within the flour on the tray simply earlier than frying.
7. Oil temperature – use a thermometer to examine the temperature. If you happen to don’t have one, check by throwing in a lump of breading – ought to sizzle immediately however not burn shortly. OR stick a bamboo chopstick in and contact the bottom of the pot – if bubbles rise from ground of pot, oil is sizzling sufficient.
8. Spider – Cooking utensil that is sort of a handheld colander / wire mesh, very helpful for scooping issues out of water / oil. See footage in publish / video for the one I’ve.
If you happen to don’t have one with holes giant sufficient for the flour to simply fall via, shake extra flour off earlier than transferring into an everyday finer mesh spider or slotted spoon earlier than decreasing into the oil.
9. Recipe supply: Some methods tailored from Kenji’s recipe on Critical Eats with some steps simplified / amended primarily based on my testing. Spices are my KFC copycat “11 secret herbs and spices” combine.
Leftovers will preserve for 3 to 4 days within the fridge however crust will lose crispiness and inside will not be as juicy as freshly cooked. Reheat with a fast 30 second fry or 3 minutes in a extremely popular oven.
Oil reuse – Oil will get infused with the seasoning flavour so whereas it’s alright to re-use a few times extra, be aware that no matter you prepare dinner might be infused with the seasoning flavour from this recipe. I used the identical oil to make this similar popcorn rooster 3 instances. I let the flour bits settle then poured off the clear oil, and topped up a bit as wanted.
