The Best Fried Chicken Feet

I’ve got a lot to say about this Fried Chicken Feet recipe.  First off, if you can get over the creepiness, these really aren’t that bad.  In fact my wife even used the word delicious.  And, as far as Chicken Feet Recipes go, this probably really is the best of the best.

The secret lies in how the feet are prepared.  Though they are fried, to give it that crispy outside texture, they are actually boiled first to make the inside tender.  I borrowed the sauce from my Wasabi Chicken Wings recipe, which I’ve included below, but in all honesty, if you like spice, I highly recommend using the sauce from my Firecracker Shrimp recipe instead.  I’ve included a link for that below as well.

The second thing I would say about Fried Chicken Feet is that there really isn’t a lot of meat, unfortunately.  I think someone would really be ordering or serving these up for the “Awe” effect, because these really are impressive to look at and they make a great conversational piece!
