Here’s a solid Thermomix-style Krispy Fried Chicken recipe—inspired by that classic crunchy, spiced coating:
Thermomix Krispy Fried Chicken
🧂 Ingredients
Chicken:
1 kg chicken pieces (drumsticks, thighs, or wings)
Marinade:
- 250 ml buttermilk (or milk + 1 tbsp vinegar)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder
Coating Mix:
- 200 g plain flour
- 50 g cornflour (for extra crispiness)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- ½ tsp cayenne pepper (optional, for heat)
Other:
- 1–2 eggs
- Oil for deep frying
Thermomix Steps
1. Make the coating mix
Add all coating ingredients into Thermomix bowl
Mix: 10 sec / speed 5
Transfer to a large bowl
2. Prepare marinade
Add marinade ingredients into bowl
Mix: 10 sec / speed 3
Pour over chicken and marinate at least 2 hours (overnight is better)
3. Prep egg wash
Beat eggs in a bowl (you can do 5 sec / speed 4 in Thermomix if you like)
4. Coat the chicken
Remove chicken from marinade
Dip into flour mix → egg → flour mix again (double coating = extra crunch)
5. Fry
Heat oil to 170–180°C
Fry chicken in batches for 12–15 minutes until golden and cooked through
Drain on paper towels
Tips for that “Krispy” texture
Let coated chicken rest 10–15 minutes before frying (helps crust stick)
Add a few tablespoons of marinade into flour mix for flaky bits
Don’t overcrowd the pan—keeps it crispy, not soggy
Serve with
Fries, coleslaw, or soft buns for a burger-style meal
A dipping sauce like garlic mayo or spicy ketchup
