Prep Time: 5 mins
Cook Time: 20 mins (for chips)

Ingredients:

For the Chicken Salt:

• ¼ cup sea salt flakes (or kosher salt)

• 2 tbsp chicken bouillon powder (or crushed stock cubes)

• 1 tbsp garlic powder

• 1 tbsp onion powder

• 1 tsp smoked paprika (for color)

• 1 tsp celery salt (optional)

• ½ tsp ground turmeric (for golden color)

• ½ tsp white pepper (or black pepper)

For the Chips:

• 4 large russet potatoes, cut into thick fries

• Vegetable oil (for frying or baking)

Instructions:

1. Make Chicken Salt:

   • Blend all dry ingredients in a food processor or mortar/pestle until fine. Store in an airtight jar.

2. Prepare Chips:

   • Oven method: Toss potato wedges in oil, bake at 425°F (220°C) for 25–30 mins until crispy.

   • Deep-fry method: Fry at 350°F (180°C) until golden (3–5 mins). Drain on paper towels.

3. Season Generously:

   • While chips are hot, sprinkle with 1–2 tsp chicken salt per serving. Toss to coat.

Serving Ideas:

• Classic Aussie style: Serve with aioli or tomato sauce (ketchup).

• Next-level: Add chicken salt to buttered popcorn, grilled corn, or roasted nuts.

• Vegan option: Use mushroom powder instead of chicken bouillon.

Perfect for Chips & Fries

Chicken Salt is a classic finishing seasoning for hot chips, fries, wedges and potato gems.

For the best result, sprinkle it over potatoes immediately after cooking while they are still hot so the seasoning adheres evenly.

Great for Roast Potatoes & BBQ

Use Chicken Salt on roast potatoes, chicken, sausages and grilled meats, or apply it as a dry seasoning before cooking.

It is especially useful for BBQs and casual family meals where you want one easy seasoning that works across several dishes.

More Than Just Chips

Try Chicken Salt on scrambled eggs, omelettes, popcorn, roasted vegetables and savoury snacks.

You can also stir it through mayonnaise, sour cream or yoghurt to create a quick savoury dip or dressing.

Useful for Savoury Baking

Add a small amount to bread dough, savoury scones or homemade crackers, or sprinkle lightly over the top before baking for an extra layer of flavour.
