Is it okay to substitute Chipotle chilli powder for just chilli powder? I can’t find the right kind anywhere
Unfortunately it won’t taste the same.
I order mine from Amazon. That’s the only place I’ve been able to find it…McCormick Chipotle Chile Pepper.
I like this one. Sometimes my chicken doesn’t come out crispy enough. Any suggestions?
you can add some baking powder to the flour. that should do the trick.
