Crispy & Juicy Garlic Scallion Chicken
Let’s Make a Delicious Fried Chicken with Excess Oil Removed.
We’ll make a simple whole chicken with excess oil drained out.
Ingredients
- 1 whole chicken
- Pinch of black pepper
- 1 Tbsp minced garlic
- Pinch of dried parsley
- 1/2 cup beer
- 1 tsp salt
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Today, we’ll be making a delicious whole chicken with most of the oil removed using an air fryer. It’s a dish everyone loves, with a crispy exterior and a moist interior.
Step 2
First, let’s prepare a special magical sauce to flavor the whole chicken. In a bowl, combine a pinch of black pepper, 1 tablespoon of minced garlic, a pinch of dried parsley, 1/2 cup of beer, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Mix everything thoroughly. The beer helps to eliminate any gamey smell from the chicken and tenderizes the meat.
Step 3
Carefully apply the prepared garlic-beer sauce evenly over the thoroughly washed and dried whole chicken. It’s important to ensure the marinade gets into every nook and cranny, both inside and out, and between the bones. For an even better flavor, let the chicken marinate for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate.
Step 4
Now, preheat your air fryer. Place the marinated whole chicken inside and cook at 175°C (350°F) for 30 minutes. Turning the chicken halfway through will help it cook evenly. If you prefer an extra crispy skin, you can increase the temperature to 180°C (356°F) for an additional 5 minutes after the initial 30 minutes. The skin should become golden brown and wonderfully crisp.
Step 5
Voila! The whole chicken, deliciously cooked in the air fryer for 30 minutes, is ready. The golden-brown skin and appetizing appearance look truly mouthwatering, don’t they?
Step 6
Serve this freshly cooked, warm whole chicken alongside fresh shredded scallions. The combination of fragrant scallions and crispy chicken is absolutely fantastic. Enjoy a hearty and delicious meal with this simple homemade garlic scallion chicken!
