Meta Canonical	null
Boilerpipe Text	Jump to Recipe Jump to Video Crispy Outside but juicy melt in mouth inside, this KFC Chicken recipe is so easy to make and tastes actually better than KFC. I have used the secret Kentucky Fried Chicken’s 11 Herbs and Spices to make it taste exactly like the store bought ones. I was always fascinated by the taste and texture of the KFC fried Chicken so much so that i started experimenting lot of recipes. After a lot of fails and trials, i finally found a balance of the spices, the look and texture of the chicken was close to KFC. KFC was founded by a man called Harland Sanders aka Colonel Sanders. He started serving his trademark fried chicken when he owned a petrol station just outside North Corbin, Kentucky, back in 1930. After impressing the locals, he was given the title of honorary colonel from the Kentucky governor in 1936 and a mention in Duncan Hines’ 1939 book Adventures In Good Eating. As soon as he realised it was his chicken people were into and not his petrol, he scrapped the petrol station and turned it into a 142-seat roadside restaurant and motel called Sanders’ Court & Cafe. The KFC recipe is super-secret. During his lifetime, Colonel Sanders always kept the blend of 11 herbs and spices for his trademark chicken in his own head, before writing it on a scrap of paper, which he kept in his wallet. These days, the recipe is kept under literal lock and key at the KFC headquarters; with just a few select members of the company privy to the information. The mystical blend of 11 herbs and spices is so well protected that it remains in a locked vault at KFC HQ. Even chefs only get half the formula at any one time in order to maintain secrecy. Eight decades after it first hit restaurants, the Colonel’s Original Recipe Chicken remains just as mysterious as ever.
