How is Jollibee chicken so juicy?

[Krobilus]

While Jollibee really doesn't disclose much information about its chicken recipe, its website does mention a "secret marinade" that helps ensure this signature juiciness. One Redditor, attempting to recreate Chickenjoy at home, used salt water infused with lemongrass as a brine.

Hey there! I think Jollibee chicken is so juicy because of their special marinade and batter recipe. Though it's also possible they use a pressure fryer, which helps lock in moisture while creating that crispy exterior we all love!

Oh that's a secret everyone is dying to know, but I thinks they are using an electric fryer for that

based on my experience, I don't think its as juicy as before. I was served with a dry one and even hard, not crispy, cold.

That sounds intriguing! Jollibee's "secret marinade" definitely adds to the allure of their delicious chicken. The idea of using a saltwater and lemongrass brine to replicate the juiciness at home is fascinating.
