  • Preheat the oven to 170 °C.
  • Make a well with the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt on a clean surface. Mix well and add the butter and cream cheese. Using a pastry cutter, work to break up the shortening and butter until you get a mixture with a sand-like consistency.
  • Add the eggs one by one and the milk, mix without over-kneading, just until the ingredients are combined, so that the dough does not become elastic.
  • Wrap the dough in cling film and refrigerate for 30 minutes before using it, to make it easier to handle.
  • Roll out the biscuit dough into a rectangle on a floured surface. Mark the surface with your fingers and fold it like a book. Let it rest for 3 minutes, then with a rolling pin, roll it out again until it is 5 mm thick.
  • Cut the biscuits using a round cutter of 8 cm in diameter and place them on a previously greased and floured baking tray.
  • With a smaller circular cutter, mark the center of the biscuits to give them the traditional shape. Brush with egg yolk and bake for 25 minutes at 180 °C.
  • Mix the milk with the lemon juice in a bowl and let it rest for 10 minutes.
  • For the fried chicken: Mix the flour with the spices in a bowl, thoroughly combine all the ingredients and set aside.
  • In another bowl, mix the milk with the apple cider vinegar, salt, and paprika, stir until combined and then place the breasts in the mixture to marinate for 25 minutes in the refrigerator. This will help concentrate the flavor and tenderize the chicken.
  • Once the breasts are marinated, coat them in the flour mixture until completely covered. Heat enough oil in a deep pan over medium-high heat and fry the breasts until golden brown.
