Notes
Can I Make the KFC Famous Bowl Recipe with Instant Mashed Potatoes
Want to make the KFC Famous Bowl recipe with instant mashed potatoes? No problem. I use Idahoan instant potatoes all the time (even on Thanksgiving, shhh) and no one ever says a word about it. I add some kosher salt and black pepper and have even been known to add garlic powder and/or onion powder. Or use chicken broth in place of the water. Also, if you’re feeling like you want a creamier mashed potato bowl, add some cream cheese to your potatoes. It’s so much easier than having to use a potato peeler, boil potatoes, use a potato masher or hand mixer, and Just prepare them as you normally would and make the KFC Popcorn Chicken Bowl recipe with them.Homemade KFC Famous Bowl Substitutions
There are a few things that you can substitute in the copycat KFC Famous Bowl if you don’t want to cut up and prepare your chicken breast yourself. You can substitute any of the following:- crispy chicken tenders
