AlBaik Style Broasted Chicken

AlBaik Style Broasted Chicken

If you have ever visited Jeddah, KSA this will be familiar to you. AlBaik Chicken is a Fried Chicken outlet, unique to this region. The local KFC  is no competition for this favorite mouth-watering fried chicken. It is beyond delicious and I am sure everyone wants to know the secret.  I believe it’s the ingredients they use and obviously the quality of the chicken of course. They may have a secret that we will never know too.

Like many, I remember the taste of Al-Baik Chicken with fondness. We would have it perhaps every other week while growing up. When I moved to Singapore, I loved to taste all these new foods here. Fantastic flavors and new experiences… but fried chicken is never going to get better than Al Baik!

I have tried so many recipes, over the past 10 years… and I realized that the simpler the formula, usually the better result. This recipe for AlBaik Style Broasted Chicken is pretty darn good and it’s homemade so you know what you are eating.
