Provided by Scott Loitsch

Categories     Dinner

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 cups water
1 cup coarse kosher salt
6 cups cold ice water
4 chicken thighs
4 chicken drumsticks
2 cups buttermilk
¾ cup coconut milk
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups all-purpose flour
¼ cup semolina flour
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon white pepper
3 cups peanut oil, for frying
¼ cup berbere
¼ cup hot smoked paprika
2 tablespoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons white pepper
2 tablespoons celery salt
1 ½ teaspoons granulated garlic
1 ½ teaspoons coarse kosher salt

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan over high heat, add 2 cups (470 ml) of water and the salt. Bring to a simmer, stirring to dissolve all the salt. Remove from heat and pour into a larger pot/container.
  • Add the ice water into the pot to cool. Add the chicken, cover, and refrigerate for 1 ½ hours.
  • Prepare the chicken shake. In a small bowl, whisk together all the chicken shake ingredients.
  • NOTE: Makes about 1 cup (110g) that will keep for 6 months. Store in a jar out of the light.
  • In a 9x13-inch (23x33 cm) baking dish, add buttermilk, coconut milk, and garlic.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of chicken shake and whisk together.
  • Remove the chicken from the saltwater, dab on paper towels to remove excess liquid, then add into the buttermilk marinade. Roll to coat each piece. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • Fill a large cast iron pan ⅔-full with peanut oil over medium-high heat. Heat to 360˚F (182˚C).
  • While the oil is heating, coat the marinated chicken. In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, semolina flour, cornstarch, and white pepper.
  • Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off, then roll in the flour mixture, packing it on so the chicken is completely coated.
  • Set coated chicken on a wire rack over a baking sheet. If the coating looks damp, roll it in the flour mixture again.
  • Working in batches, fry the chicken until it is brown and golden on both sides and reaches an internal temperature of 165˚F (73˚C), about 10 minutes per batch. NOTE: Adjust heat to keep the oil between 350-375˚F (180-190˚C).
  • Drain on a rack set over a baking sheet. Rest 8-10 minutes.
  • Fry the chicken a second time, only for about 3 minutes, to really crisp up the skin. Drain on a rack.
  • Sprinkle with additional chicken shake.
  • Enjoy!

SOUTHERN FRIED CHICKEN



Southern Fried Chicken image

Thanks Paula Deen (FoodTV) for the best fried chicken I have ever made! It has a nice, savory flavor and a coating that has just the right amount of crispiness. It was a good thing I had an extra cut-up chicken in the refrigerator because my family was begging for it again the next day. Although it calls for what seems like a lot of hot pepper sauce, it isn't any spicier than Jack-In-the Box's Spicy Crispy Chicken--you can take it!! FYI I made this using 10 pounds of wings--enough of the hot sauce/egg mixture to cover, but you will need to double flour mixture if you want to do this much. I'm not saying it tastes like KFC--only that you won't be doing business with them anymore.

Categories     Chicken

Time 40m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 lbs cut-up chicken
4 eggs
1/3 cup water
1 cup hot sauce (I use Louisiana Hot Sauce, Tabasco might be hotter)
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/4 teaspoons fresh ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Heat peanut oil in a large deep pot to 350°F (do not fill more than half full--you don't want a hot-oil spill-over accident!).
  • For sauce mixture: in a medium-sized bowl, beat the eggs with the water.
  • Add hot sauce and whisk together well.
  • Pour this mixture into a large plastic zip-top bag.
  • For seasoning mixture: In a small bowl, combine 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder.
  • For dredging mixture: In a another bowl, mix flour, baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  • Rinse and pat dry chicken pieces with a paper towel.
  • Cut breast pieces in half across ribs.
  • Sprinkle chicken generously on both sides with seasoning blend.
  • Drop a few chicken pieces of chicken into bag of sauce mixture and squish around to coat thoroughly.
  • One piece at a time, roll chicken in flour mixture and drop into hot oil.
  • Don't crowd chicken pieces--I cook about half the chicken at a time.
  • Fry chicken until brown and crisp.
  • Drain on paper toweling.
  • Dark meat will take about 14 minutes, white meat about 10 minutes.
  • Remember smaller pieces cook faster than the larger ones.
  • You can check for doneness by piercing to the bone in the thickest part with a fork.
  • If the juices run clear, it is done.

SOUTHERN LIVING'S BEST FRIED CHICKEN



Southern Living's Best Fried Chicken image

Many modern cooks have never learned to fry. We are convinced that fried food is unhealthy, unpopular and messy. But Norman King, a lifelong Southerner, a registered dietitian and a food editor at Southern Living magazine set out to change that. In "The Way to Fry," he offers both a guide to proper deep-frying technique, and a terrific recipe for crunchy, juicy fried chicken. While at first glance the recipe may resemble every other fried chicken you've ever seen, the differences lie in the precise instructions, ensuring chicken that's cooked through, golden and crisp. A little bacon fat is an option for flavor.

Provided by Julia Moskin

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon salt
1 chicken with skin, about 2 1/2 pounds, cut up into 8 pieces (see note)
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups vegetable oil, like grapeseed, peanut or canola (do not use olive oil)
1/4 cup bacon drippings (or use more oil)

Steps:

  • Combine 1 tablespoon salt with 3 quarts water in a large bowl or container. Add chicken, cover and refrigerate 8 hours or overnight. Drain, rinse with cold water and pat dry.
  • Stir together remaining 1 teaspoon salt and the black pepper. Sprinkle half the mixture evenly over chicken.
  • In a large sealable plastic bag, combine remaining pepper mixture and flour. Add 2 pieces chicken to bag and shake well to coat. Remove chicken pieces, shaking off extra flour, and set aside. Repeat with remaining chicken.
  • Take a large (10- or 12-inch) cast-iron skillet or chicken fryer, for which you have a lid, and fit with a candy or deep-frying thermometer. Add oil and bacon drippings and heat to 360 degrees over medium heat; the oil will ripple and possibly give off a few wisps of smoke.
  • Using tongs, immediately add chicken pieces, skin side down (work in batches if necessary to avoid crowding pan). The oil will drop to about 325 degrees, where it should stay; adjust heat so that oil is bubbling gently around the pieces. Cover and cook 6 minutes; uncover and cook 9 minutes. Turn chicken pieces; cover and cook 6 minutes. Uncover and cook another 5 to 9 minutes, depending on size of pieces. If necessary for even browning, turn pieces over a few times toward the end.
  • Drain on paper towels or paper bags. Let cool at least 20 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Use a cast iron skillet or Dutch oven. This will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the chicken from sticking.
  • Preheat the oil before adding the chicken. This will help to create a crispy crust.
  • Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper. This will help to enhance the flavor of the chicken.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat. This will help to prevent the chicken from burning.
  • Flip the chicken once during cooking. This will help to ensure that the chicken is cooked evenly on both sides.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving. This will help to keep the chicken juicy.

Conclusion:

Fried chicken is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make delicious fried chicken at home. Just be sure to follow the tips above and you'll be able to enjoy perfectly cooked fried chicken every time.
