Atomic Chicken Southern Fried Chicken Coating Combo

Model: AC-SFC-COMBOPACK

Combo Includes:

• 1 × Atomic Chicken Southern Fried Chicken Coating (Original, 500 g)
• 1 × Atomic Chicken Southern Fried Hot 'N Spicy (500 g)

This combo pairs two 500 g bags of Australian-made fried chicken coating from Atomic Chicken: the Original and the Hot 'N Spicy. Half a bag coats 6 to 7 chicken pieces, so one order covers up to four batches, with a mild option for the family and a spicy one for the heat seekers.

 Suitable for:

• Thigh and breast fillets for classic Southern-style fried chicken
• Halved breast fillets for homemade fried chicken burgers
• Chicken tenderloins for crunchy chicken strips
• Households split between mild and spicy eaters
• Frying in a deep fryer or pan with sunflower, canola or peanut oil

 Why home cooks choose this combo

• Two flavours in one order: the Original and the Hot 'N Spicy
• Australian owned and made
• Flour, corn flour, spices and chicken salt already blended in both bags
• Seasoning built into the coating, so there is no separate seasoning step
• Half a bag coats 6 to 7 chicken pieces
• Same simple buttermilk method for both flavours

It's ideal for anyone who wants proper homemade fried chicken with a mild and a spicy option on the table.

 Two flavours of fried chicken coating, one easy method

Both bags follow the same buttermilk method printed on the pack, so you can cook a batch of each side by side without juggling two recipes. Get the prep right and the coating does the rest.

• Even thickness: pound thighs or breasts between plastic wrap with a meat tenderiser or rolling pin so every piece cooks evenly.
• Buttermilk marinade: whisk 2 tablespoons of salt into 600 ml of buttermilk and marinate the chicken in the fridge for 2 hours or more. Overnight is best.
• Pressed-on coating: tip half a bag (250 g) into a bowl and press it onto the chicken by hand for a nice thick layer.
• Small batches: fry 2 to 3 pieces at a time until golden brown and cooked through.
• Wire rack finish: rest the cooked chicken on a wire rack to drain off excess oil before serving.

 Original vs Hot 'N Spicy: flavour and heat

The two bags share the same plain flour and corn flour base, so the crunch stays the same while the heat changes. Once you've got your fried chicken coating technique down, switching flavours is as simple as reaching for the other bag.

• Original: chicken salt and spices mixed right through the coating, for classic fried chicken the whole table can enjoy.
• Hot 'N Spicy: rated hot by Atomic Chicken, for fried chicken, burgers and wings with a real kick.
• Flour and corn flour base: fries up to a golden crust on thighs, breasts and tenders alike.
• Buttermilk pairing: a thick coat of buttermilk under the coating helps build the crunchy bits everyone fights over.

Suited to:

• Family dinners where not everyone likes it spicy
• Fried chicken burger nights
• Hot wings (Hot 'N Spicy)

 Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between the two bags?

Both share the same flour and corn flour base and the same cooking method. The Original is seasoned with chicken salt and spices, while the Hot 'N Spicy is rated hot for a proper chilli kick.

How much coating do I need?

Half a bag (250 g) coats 6 to 7 chicken pieces, so the two bags in this combo cover up to four batches.

Do I need buttermilk?

The pack method marinates the chicken in 600 ml of buttermilk whisked with 2 tablespoons of salt for 2 hours or more, ideally overnight. A thick buttermilk coat helps the coating stick and creates the crunchy bits.

What oil should I fry in?

Atomic Chicken recommends sunflower, canola or peanut oil. Fry 2 to 3 pieces at a time and don't overcrowd the fryer or pan.

Are these coatings gluten free?

No. Both contain gluten (wheat) and may contain traces of dairy, soy, sesame, peanuts or tree nuts.

Where are they made?

Both are Australian owned and made by Atomic Chicken. The Hot 'N Spicy is made with at least 72% Australian ingredients.
