·         ½ tsp. ground black pepper

·         1 tsp. baking powder

2.       Soak or dip chicken pieces in milk and then take out of the milk and then dip or coat them in the dry mixture.

3.       Set each piece aside and when finished, recoat by doing a second dip (not soak this time) in the milk and then into the mixture.

4.       Gently dip batter coated chicken into the hot oil until golden brown and drain on paper towel or wire rack.

5.       If you prefer not to deep fry, you can place the chicken on a wire rack within a roasting pan and bake for 20-25 minutes or until ready at 180C (350F) turning each piece after 10 minutes.
Serve immediately.
