KFC copycat recipes

KFC is the fried chicken chain built around the Original Recipe and its blend of herbs and spices, a formula the company keeps under wraps. The menu looks different on each side of the Atlantic: American restaurants sell biscuits, mashed potatoes and Famous Bowls, while British fans order the Zinger, Popcorn Chicken and plenty of gravy. Here you will find our take on those favorites, with notes for US and UK kitchens, an estimated cost per serving in dollars and pounds and community votes on each clone.
