You will be seeing a lot of chicken recipes this month,I ended October with this delicious Teriyaki Baked Chicken and I wanted more chicken! And more chicken you shall get! Before we get started on the recipe here's a bit of history about the Popcorn Chicken.Popcorn Chicken was invented by food technologist Gene
Gagliardi, a KFC product consisting of small, "bite-sized" pieces of
chicken that have been breaded and fried. It was test-marketed in the United
States from March 1992, and had been launched nationwide by September 1992. It
has been periodically available in KFC outlets. It was re-introduced in the US
in 1998, and again in 2001. It was later re-introduced once again in 2015,
under the name "KFC Popcorn Nuggets". The product is targeted at
teenagers and young adults, young or old, you will find yourself nibbling at these delicious crunchy biting that just melt in your mouth! I had always wanted to cook these scrumptious bites but kept postponing, why? I have no idea. Now I'm like,where have you been all my life? Delicious, spicy, crunchy,what more would you want in a chicken dish?
