HONEY-FRIED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Put the chicken pieces in a mixing bowl. Blend the honey and vinegar and pour it over the chicken. Stir to coat the pieces evenly. Let stand at least two hours, stirring occasionally. Drain the pieces on paper toweling but reserve and set aside two tablespoons of the marinade. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper.
• Heat the lard and oil in a 12-inch frying pan to a temperature, if a thermometer is available, of 360 degrees.
• Meanwhile, combine the all-purpose flour with the whole-wheat flour. Add the chicken; stir to coat all over. Shake off excess.
• Place the pieces skin-side down in the hot fat and cook, turning the pieces often, until they are golden brown all over and cooked through, about 20 minutes or longer. The dark meat pieces generally require a longer cooking time than the white.
• Pour off most of the fat from the pan, leaving the brown particles that may cling to the pan. Do not wipe out the skillet.
• Combine the wine with the chicken broth. Heat the skillet and add the mixture, stirring to dissolve the brown particles. Cook until reduced by half.
• Add the cream, thyme, lemon rind, mint and the two tablespoons of reserved marinade. Cook until reduced to about two cups. Put the sauce through a fine sieve, pressing to extract all the juices from the solids. Reheat and season with salt and pepper to taste. Spoon sauce over the chicken and serve.

ATK'S SUPER CRISPY, HONEY-DIPPED FRIED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Make brine and batter at the same time so that they can be refrigerated for an adequate amount of time. The batter will be thin, but is quite adequate. It will thicken when chilled. Brine chicken in 2 quarts of water with 1/2 cup of sugar and 1/2 cup of salt whisked inches Refrigerate for 30 to 60 minutes. Heat oil (about 4 cups) to 350 degrees Farenheit in a 4 quart pot. Dry chicken and dredge in 1/2 Celsius cornstarch, shaking off any excess. Coat with batter and carefully drop into the oil, cooking for 5 to 7 minutes. Chicken will be light in color, but remove to a cooling rack or paper bags/towels. When all chicken is par-fried, reheat oil to 350 degrees. Dip fried chicken pieces into batter again and fry for another 5 to 7 minutes, then drain again. In a medium bowl, microwave honey and hot sauce for one minute. Place chicken pieces, one at a time, into warm mix and roll around until completely coated. Remove to a cooling rack. Enjoy hot or cold. Even when chilled, the chicken will remain super crispy.
