Popeyes Chicken (copy cat)
Ingredients
CHICKEN
o 8 pieces fresh frying chicken
o 1 (6 ounce) bottle Louisiana brand hot sauce (Skip for the "mild" version)
SEASONING
o 1 1/2 teaspoons fine sea salt
o 1 1/2 teaspoons cayenne pepper (Skip for the "mild" version)
o 1 teaspoon dry buttermilk ( SACO)
o 1 teaspoon white pepper
o 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
o 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
o 1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
o 1/2 teaspoon Accent seasoning
o 1/2 teaspoon superfine sugar
o 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
o 1/4 teaspoon ground dill seed ( not dill weed)
o 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
o 1/4 teaspoon sweet paprika
o 1/4 teaspoon dried chipotle powder
BATTER
o 6 large eggs, beaten
o 1 tablespoon white pepper
o 1 teaspoon fine salt
o 1 teaspoon fine sugar
Ingredients
• 1/2 teaspoon Accent seasoning
DREDGING
o 3 cups all-purpose flour
DEEP-FRYING FAT
o beef tallow shortening
Directions
1. RINSE chicken pieces and blot; PLACE chicken into a 9 x 13 baking dish; COAT chicken well with contents of one 6-ounce bottle original Louisiana Hot Sauce, rubbing sauce well into skin of chicken. Skip the hot sauce for the "mild" version of Popeye's chicken.
2. MEASURE the all of the SEASONING ingredients into a resealable plastic container; SEAL container and shake well to blend; FUNNEL mixture into an empty, clean salt shaker; SPRINKLE the SEASONING evenly and generously on every side of marinated chicken; RUB mixture well into chicken; ALLOW chicken to marinate in seasoning for at least 2 hours, refrigerated and sealed.
3. BEAT 6 large eggs in a large bowl with 1 tablespoon white pepper, 1 teaspoon fine salt, 1 teaspoon fine sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon Accent seasoning; WHISK mixture in bowl vigorously until smooth.
4. ADD 3 cups all-purpose flour into a medium bowl for the DREDGING.
5. PLACE a cooling rack over a baking sheet and set aside.
6. REMOVE chicken from the marinating dish using tong; (1) DIP chicken into the BATTER until evenly coated; (2) COAT the chicken well in the DREDGING flour; PLACE chicken onto the rack over baking sheet.
7. REPEAT steps with remaining chicken pieces until all are battered and breaded (NOTE: IF THE FLOUR DREDGING BECOMES CLUMPY, SIFT IT THROUGH A SIEVE TO REMOVE CLUMPS BEFORE CONTINUING); ALLOW breaded chicken to rest at least 15 minutes to absorb the breading.
8. ADD the manufacturer's recommended amount of deep-frying fat for
deep-frying (100% beef tallow shortening or 70% Crisco Shortening with 30% Crisco Butter-Flavor Shortening); PLACE deep-fryer basket into place in deep-fryer; PREHEAT fryer to 315°F (or preheat enough fat to immerse chicken completely in deep heavy stovetop pot between 315°F, using a standard deep-fryer thermometer to gauge).
9. CAREFULLY lower each piece breaded chicken one at a time, into the deep-fryer basket without crowding (if a standard size home fryer is used, add no more than 2-3 pieces at a time); (if stovetop frying, gently place breaded chicken pieces into hot oil using tongs, turning once halfway through frying duration); FRY for 10 minutes; RAISE frying temperature to 375°F ; CONTINUE frying at the higher temperature for 5 minutes (return frying oil temperature to 315°F for each new batch).
10. BLOT chicken lightly to drain; TRANSFER rack over a baking sheet and keep chicken warmed in a preheated 170°F oven until serving; SERVE and enjoy!

Isn't a lot of Popeye's getting delicious chicken in under 15 minutes, and not going through all this shite? Why are y'all trying to turn a drive through, "my heart is at risk" experience into a two hour, full dishwasher, no sides, extravaganza? Don't forget to clean the stove.
