buttered fried chicken with coriander on it, Amber menu

My all-time favorite Buttered Fried Chicken

The hot and spicy fried chicken is the most prominent offering on Amebr’s menu. My daughter particularly enjoys the buttered fried chicken, characterized by the tender, citrus-infused chicken pieces enveloped in a crunchy cornstarch coating and a generous layer of butter.

When paired with a sprinkle of black paprika, parsley, buttery chicken, and a touch of salt, the traditional essence of garlic enhances the overall appeal of this delectable dish.

Creamy butter sauce :

The smooth and creamy butter sauce enhances the flavor of the dish, complementing the seasoned chicken bites. This combination delivers a rich and delicious taste experience with each bite. 

Garlic chunks and sugar :

Combining garlic and a small amount of sugar creates a savory Umami flavor profile. This pairing can enhance the texture and taste of spicy and juicy meats, adding a satisfying crunch.

Marination in spice :

To enhance the flavors of buttered fried chicken, it is essential to use a blend of marination spices. A recommended combination is to mix red chili flakes with powdered paprika and salt. This vibrant spice mix not only adds heat but also depth of flavor, resulting in a mouthwatering dish.

Many people, including myself, have tried this recipe and found it incredibly enjoyable, especially when shared with family.

Butter sauce :

  • 1 cup butter

Cooking Instructions :

  • Hey there! Let’s whip up some delicious chicken together. Start by marinating your chicken in some eggs in a pot for about 2 to 3 hours. Feel free to sprinkle in salt and red chili to suit your taste!
  • Next, grab another bowl and mix together some cornstarch, black pepper, garlic powder, onion, a bit of salt, and any additional spices you enjoy. Once everything is well combined, coat your marinated chicken in this flavorful mixture.
  • Heat some oil in a frying pan until it’s around 180 degrees Celsius. Carefully add the chicken and let it cook for about 20 minutes until it’s a gorgeous golden brown color.
  • While that’s cooking, let’s make the butter sauce! In a separate saucepan, melt some butter over low heat and toss in garlic chunks and cloves to your liking until it smells amazing. You can add a little sugar to the mix and let it dissolve.
  • Finally, mix your crispy chicken with the buttery goodness in the pan. Give it a quick 2-minute cook to infuse all that rich flavor into the chicken pieces. And there you have it.

No doubt, these golden brown meaty bites of Buttered Fried Chicken are incredibly tender and juicy, delivering true joy and satisfaction to food lovers. I encourage you to experience this Filipino dish at Amber Restaurant, and I guarantee it will leave you craving more!
