Hello Everyone!
I'm so excited to share with you all my very own HOMEMADE Chicken Chicharon- Wohoo!

I'm such a big fan of Chicharon wether its pork,chicken or beef- they are all delicious and addicting.
This snack is such a guilty pleasure because we all know that its not good for us BUT the good news is- it won't hurt you if you only eat Chicharon in moderation. That's basically what I did just enough to satisfy my cravings!(hahaha) And to make the whole experience fun invite your friends to come over and have Chicharon for lunch! or maybe cook Chicharon together and remembering all those fun moments:)
Have I told you that making Chicharon is easy as pie? Oh yeah! easy peasy and it only require 3 ingredients. Hello! that is amazingly good right? So, are you excited to make your very own homemade Chicharon? Come on and don't forget to invite your friends and have FUN cooking!
Ingredients:
Chicken Skin- cut into pieces
Salt n Pepper- to taste
Cooking Oil-
Sauce (Optional)- Adjust the taste according to your preference.
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup vinegar
1 small red onion
1 medium size tomato
Ginger- thinly sliced
- Combine all the ingredients above and serve it along with your very own homemade Chicharon.
Directions:
1.) Put little salt and pepper into the chicken skin. Set aside.
2.) Pour decent amount of oil in medium size pan. (If you do have a deep fryer then that would work too:) Let it heat through maybe about 15-20 minutes medium heat.
3.) Once the oil is hot. Slowly add the chicken skin cutlets. Let it fry until its golden brown and crispy. (Be careful of splashing oil) Check the Chicharon every once in awhile and make sure the every part of the skin is covered with oil.
4.) Once the Chicharon is cooked. Lay them out in paper towel to drain excess oil.
5.) Serve HOT or COLD along with your favorite sauce and rice (wink)
Enjoy your very own homemade Chicharon. Its also perfect for snacks with friends!:)
I promise you! It won't hurt you if you eat Chicharon once in awhile and its DELISH! I can't help myself going back for more..(hahahha) Its addicting, crunchy, and super yummy! Definitely took me back in Pinas. I'm so proud that I finally make my first Chicken Chicharon and I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do. I'll see you in few days for more scrumptious recipes and stay gorgeous everyone!
