How to recreate the discontinued Taco Bell Chicken Biscuit Taco at home
In short: Ethan Chlebowski demonstrates how to replicate the elusive Taco Bell Chicken Biscuit Taco. This guide provides a practical method for crafting a crispy, fried chicken-filled biscuit that serves as an ideal addition to weekend brunch.
The process involves two main components: a fried chicken tender and a jalapeño-infused biscuit. For the chicken, pieces are coated in a light batter of egg, soy, and cornstarch before being breaded and fried in oil heated to 325-350 degrees until golden brown.
The biscuit dough requires a specific technique to ensure flakiness: frozen butter is grated into the flour and chilled for 10 minutes to prevent premature melting. After mixing in buttermilk and minced jalapeños, the dough is rolled to a half-inch thickness and folded three times to create layers. The final assembly involves placing the fried chicken inside the biscuit square, which is then folded and baked at 450 degrees for 10-13 minutes.
