Categories     main-dish

Time 5h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 quart buttermilk
1/2 cup Emeril's Original Essence, divided, recipe follows
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons sugar
1 head garlic, cloves peeled and crushed
2 (3 1/2 to 4-pound) chickens, cut into 8 pieces each
4 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons cayenne pepper
Peanut oil, for frying
2 1/2 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried thyme

Steps:

  • Combine the buttermilk, 1/4 cup Essence, salt, sugar, and garlic in a large nonreactive bowl. Stir to blend. Immerse the chicken in the mixture and refrigerate for at least 4 hours and for up to 24 hours.
  • Combine the flour, the remaining 1/4 cup Essence, and the cayenne in a large doubled brown paper bag or plastic freezer bag and shake to blend. Drop the chicken, a few pieces at a time, into the flour mixture and shake thoroughly to completely coat. Remove the chicken and shake off the excess flour. Repeat the coating process with the remaining chicken pieces. Place the coated chicken on a large wire rack set over a sheet pan and let rest until ready to fry, at least 20 minutes.
  • Heat 4 inches of oil to 300 degrees F over medium-high heat in a medium Dutch oven or heavy pot. Fry the chicken in batches, skin side down, until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Turn and fry until golden brown on the second side, 8 to 10 minutes longer. Remove the chicken and drain on paper towels. (Note: An even oil temperature is the key to success; a clip-on candy/deep-fry thermometer should be kept in the pot at all times. And the temperature should remain between 280 degrees F and 300 degrees F at all times.) Allow the chicken to rest at least 5 minutes before serving.
  • Combine all ingredients thoroughly.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Always prepare all your ingredients before you start cooking. This will help you save time and avoid scrambling around for ingredients while you're cooking.
  • Use a large skillet or wok: This will give you plenty of room to stir-fry the chicken and vegetables without overcrowding the pan.
  • Cook the chicken in batches: If you're using a small skillet, you may need to cook the chicken in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Just be sure to cook the chicken all the way through before adding the vegetables.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken can easily become dry and tough if it's overcooked. Just cook it until it's cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This will add color, flavor, and nutrients to your stir-fry. Some good options include broccoli, carrots, bell peppers, and snap peas.
  • Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what really brings a stir-fry together. Be sure to use a sauce that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Serve over rice or noodles: Stir-fry is traditionally served over rice or noodles. This helps to soak up the delicious sauce.
