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!

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality chicken: The fresher the chicken, the better the fried chicken will be. Look for chicken that is plump and has no discoloration.
  • Brine the chicken: Brining the chicken helps to keep it moist and flavorful. To brine the chicken, dissolve 1/2 cup of salt in 1 gallon of water. Add the chicken to the brine and let it sit for at least 4 hours, or up to overnight.
  • Use a flavorful coating: The coating on the chicken is what gives it its flavor. You can use a variety of different coatings, such as flour, cornmeal, or breadcrumbs. Season the coating with salt, pepper, and other spices to taste.
  • Fry the chicken in hot oil: The oil should be at least 350 degrees Fahrenheit when you add the chicken. This will help the chicken to cook evenly and prevent it from sticking to the pan.
  • Cook the chicken until it is golden brown and crispy: The chicken should be cooked through to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

Conclusion:

Shaker 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 fried chicken turns out perfect every time.
