HATTIE B'S HOT CHICKEN

Steps:

• Dry-brine the chicken: In a bowl, toss the chicken pieces with 1 tablespoon kosher salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper; cover and refrigerate overnight or up to 24 hours.
• Make the dip and dredge: In a bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs and hot sauce. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and 2 teaspoons sea salt.
• Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture, then dip in the milk mixture, then in the flour mixture again, shaking off the excess after each step.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a deep-fryer to 325 degrees F. Set a wire rack on top of a rimmed baking sheet and set aside. Working in batches, lower the chicken into the fryer and fry until crisp, 15 to 17 minutes for breast quarters and 18 to 20 minutes for leg quarters. Remove the chicken and let it drain on the rack.
• Make the spicy coating: Carefully ladle the lard or frying oil into a medium heatproof bowl and whisk in the cayenne pepper, brown sugar, 3/4 teaspoon sea salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, the paprika and garlic powder. Baste the spice mixture over the hot fried chicken and serve immediately; garnish with pickles.

CHICKEN FRIED CHICKEN & CREAM GRAVY

Steps:

• Mix Flour, saltines, Lawry's, Tony Chachere's, black pepper, ground red pepper, and baking powder in a shallow dish. Mix eggs and milk in a separate dish. Dredge chicken cutlets in the flour mixture, then the milk mixture and again in the flour mixture. Set aside for 10 minutes to allow the flour to adhere to the chicken. Pour oil 1/4 in deep in a large frying pan over medium high heat. Add 2 TBSP bacon grease to the oil. After oil is heated, add the cutlets to the pan, cooking 4 at a time. Fry until golden brown on both sides and cooked through. (It took me between 10 - 12 minutes total for each batch, a meat thermometer helps!) Remove that batch of cutlets onto a paper towel covered pan or plate. Add more oil as needed and finish the second batch.
• Once the chicken is done cooking, it is time to make the gravy. Remove all but 1/4 cup of drippings in the pan, making sure to leave all the tiny bits in the bottom. Over medium heat, whisk in the flour until smooth then add in the milk and keep whisking until it starts to thicken. Add the salt and pepper and taste to adjust for seasonings. Serve the gravy over your chicken with some mashed potatoes and something GREEN!!!!
