Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

¼ cup shortening, or as needed
¼ cup butter, or as needed
½ cup vegetable oil, or as needed
1 egg
1 teaspoon water
10 crackers, or as needed, crushed
¼ cup cornmeal, or as needed
1 teaspoon dried sage
dried tarragon
½ teaspoon garlic powder
salt and ground black pepper to taste
8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Melt shortening and butter in a 9x13-inch baking dish in the preheating oven. Once melted, pour enough vegetable oil into the baking dish until oil is about 1/2-inch deep. Keep oil mixture in the oven while preparing remaining ingredients.
  • Beat egg and water in a shallow dish. Combine crackers, cornmeal, sage, tarragon, and garlic powder in a large resealable plastic bag. Season with salt and pepper; seal and shake bag to mix. Dip chicken thighs in egg mixture and place 2 to 3 thighs in the plastic bag; shake to coat. Repeat with remaining chicken. Arrange chicken thighs skin-side down, in preheated baking dish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Flip chicken thighs and continue baking until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 15 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

OVEN-FRIED CHICKEN



Oven-Fried Chicken image

You need only a handful of ingredients for Ina Garten's Oven-Fried Chicken recipe from Barefoot Contessa on Food Network; buttermilk keeps the meat extra moist.

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     main-dish

Time 10h55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 chickens (3 pounds each), cut in 8 serving pieces
1 quart buttermilk
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
Vegetable oil or vegetable shortening

Steps:

  • Place the chicken pieces in a large bowl and pour the buttermilk over them. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Combine the flour, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Take the chicken out of the buttermilk and coat each piece thoroughly with the flour mixture. Pour the oil into a large heavy-bottomed stockpot to a depth of 1-inch and heat to 360 degrees F on a thermometer.
  • Working in batches, carefully place several pieces of chicken in the oil and fry for about 3 minutes on each side until the coating is a light golden brown (it will continue to brown in the oven). Don't crowd the pieces. Remove the chicken from the oil and place each piece on a metal baking rack set on a sheet pan. Allow the oil to return to 360 degrees F before frying the next batch. When all the chicken is fried, bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until the chicken is no longer pink inside. Serve hot.

Provided by Rebekah Rose Hills

Categories     100+ Everyday Cooking Recipes     Special Collection Recipes     Allrecipes Allstar Recipes     Appetizers

Time 2h35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 (8 ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breasts
⅔ cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon Buffalo sauce
1 ½ teaspoons garlic powder
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ cup olive oil, or as needed

Steps:

  • Slice each chicken breast horizontally into 2 thin fillets. Place chicken in a resealable zip-top bag with buttermilk, Buffalo sauce, and garlic powder. Seal the bag and shake to blend ingredients and evenly coat the chicken. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Combine flour, poultry seasoning, and pepper in a shallow dish or pie plate. Blend with a fork or whisk.
  • Remove chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Dip chicken in the breading mixture until well and evenly coated on both sides. Discard the remaining marinade.
  • Add enough oil to a large skillet so that it thickly coats the bottom; heat over medium-high heat until sizzling but not smoking. Place 2 chicken fillets in the skillet so they fit comfortably; do not overcrowd. Fry until crispy and golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Drain chicken on paper towels and repeat, adding more oil as necessary, to fry remaining chicken. Transfer chicken to a baking sheet.
  • Finish chicken breasts in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 8 to 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Tips:

  • Use a good quality chicken: Opt for free-range or organic chicken, which has a better flavor and texture.
  • Season the chicken well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and any other spices you like. Make sure to rub the seasoning into the chicken evenly.
  • Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) before frying the chicken. This will help the chicken cook evenly and prevent it from drying out.
  • Fry the chicken in small batches: Do not overcrowd the pan when frying the chicken. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly and will make it more likely to stick to the pan.
  • Cook the chicken until it is golden brown: Fry the chicken for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until it is golden brown and crispy. Do not overcook the chicken, or it will become dry and tough.
  • Transfer the chicken to the oven: After frying the chicken, transfer it to a baking sheet and place it in the preheated oven. Bake the chicken for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until it is cooked through.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving: Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Oven-finished fried chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following these tips, you can make sure that your oven-finished fried chicken turns out perfect every time. So next time you're craving some fried chicken, give this recipe a try!
